Amit Gupta, the promoter of Agrifields DMCC, formerly known for running Getax, is embroiled in another criminal investigation, now in India. This involves a "fraudulent share transfer" of 1,510,000 shares, "forging and manipulating records," and "illegally striking off" a loan of Rs 9,95,64,143 from Sunland Projects Pvt Ltd, as per the contents of an FIR.  His family's former company, Getax, has a history of notable legal issues. As per Sydney Morning Herald, “The US documents name Getax director Amit Gupta as the ‘target of a criminal investigation who is alleged to have conspired with others to bribe foreign public officials and to have engaged in money laundering and other offences’.” 

According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), Nauru's president Baron Waqa and justice minister were allegedly bribed by Getax. This recent investigation in India adds another layer to Amit Gupta and Getax's troubled history. The FIR was lodged by Kolkata Police on December 22, 2023, revealing this aforementioned, and the case has been filed in the National Company Law Tribunal (NLCT). Despite a court order to respond and submit documentation by December 4, 2023, neither Amit Gupta nor Sunland Projects complied, leading to the FIR.
 
Sunland, an entity with assets exceeding 700 crore rupees, owns real estate across India. One of its projects, Sunland Residency in Rajharat, Kolkata, spreads over 54,000 square feet (1.24 acres). Court documents further reveal procedural misconducts in the share transfer, constituting approximately 33.33% of the company, was not signed by the petitioner, was not registered in front of the Public Notary and the gift deed was not uploaded in the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website. The shares were transferred to Amit's father G.S. Gupta, and Amit, in 2018, became the ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) of those shares. The active legal proceedings and efforts underscores global authorities' collaborative commitment in India and the FIR filing shedding light on the intricate history of Amit Gupta and his companies, contributing to the complexity of the unfolding narrative.
