Grief, Boardroom Battles, and a Family Feud

In a dramatic turn of events, Sona Comstar's Annual General Meeting (AGM) on July 25 became the stage for a deeply personal and corporate saga. Amidst mourning, the Kapur family's internal strife over control and legacy spilled into the public eye, revealing a complex web of allegations and power plays.

A Mother's Plea Ignited the Feud

Rani Kapur, widow of Sona Group founder Surinder Kapur, sought to postpone the AGM, citing the family's grief and alleging rushed decisions about the company's future. Her objections, particularly against the appointment of Sunjay’s wife, Priya Sachdev Kapur, as a non-executive director, were met with firm resistance from the company.

Company's Stance: Legal Compliance Over Family Wishes

Sona Comstar dismissed Rani Kapur's claims, stating the AGM adhered to legal standards and questioning her shareholder status. The company emphasized that Priya Sachdev Kapur's appointment was lawful, marking a new chapter in its leadership amidst the family's turmoil.

The Legacy of Sunjay Kapur

Sunjay Kapur's sudden death in Windsor left a void in Sona Comstar and his family. His leadership had propelled the company to global prominence, but his passing has ignited a bitter succession battle, intertwining personal grief with corporate strategy.

What Lies Ahead

With legal challenges looming and the family divided, the future of Sona Comstar hangs in the balance. This saga, blending personal loss with corporate ambition, promises more chapters in the ongoing drama of the Kapur family and their business empire.
