The high-profile inheritance battle surrounding the estimated Rs 30,000 crore estate of the late businessman Sunjay Kapur has taken a significant turn, escalating the already complex dispute. Sunjay Kapur's mother, Rani Kapur, has formally moved the Delhi High Court, initiating proceedings to challenge and ultimately seek the cancellation of the Rani Kapur Family Trust. This trust is a pivotal entity within the estate, as it is understood to hold a substantial stake in Sona Comstar, a prominent auto component manufacturer.Rani Kapur's legal action underscores the deep divisions and high stakes involved in securing control over the vast fortune. The cancellation of the family trust, if granted by the court, could have profound implications for the distribution of assets and the future management of the holdings, including the stake in Sona Comstar.

The development marks a critical phase in what promises to be a protracted legal struggle over one of India's significant business inheritances.
