On 20th July, the EOW had attached properties worth Rs 2000 crore including the head office of FTIL and its bank accounts in the Rs 5600 crore payment default that occurred on its subsidiary National Spot Exchange Ltd (NSEL) three years ago.

This would have a massive repercussion on employees with several defaults of home loan equated month installments (EMIs) etc. This needs to be met through release of employees’ salary on regular basis,” said an FTIL official who did not wish to be named being the matter sub-judice.
He further added that the fear mounted with the month coming to an end and the fixed date of salary approaches.
“It is our right to defend our salary before the competent authority,” he quipped.
