The tri-deck luxury yacht M Y Ashena belonging to Singhania, chairman and managing director of Raymonds Ltd, was registered in a foreign country though it was constructed in Gujarat.

As per customs regulations, a yacht or any vessel registered in a foreign country can be anchored in Indian waters only for a limited duration. But Singhania's yacht allegedly was anchored beyond the stipulated time, leading to action by the Customs department, officials said.

The department is further investigating the case, they said.
