The long list of assets owned by <keyword id="14678" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Vijay-Mallya">Vijay Mallya</keyword>, who has been in news constantly since the past few days for <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/A-little-too-late-Mallya-flew-out-of-India-before-banks-could-take-a-stay-order-against-him/articleshow/51323634.cms" target="_BLANK￿￿￿￿">fleeing away from the country</a> even though he owes state-run banks some 9000 crore rupees, has not been able to avoid the Indian government’s hawk eyes. 
 
Apparently, the government is all set to auction off Vijay Mallya's assets, which include his personal Airbus ACJ 319, so that his service tax dues of Rs 812 crore can be recovered. 
 
Mallya’s other assets that are about to be auctioned include five smaller ATRs and three helicopters belonging to Mallya's <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/Govt-Rejects-Vijay-Mallya-As-Kingfisher-Airlines-Director/articleshow/45345410.cms" target="_BLANK￿￿￿￿">Kingfisher Airlines</a>.

"We are going ahead with the auction," a senior Central Board of Excise &amp; Customs (CBEC) official told ET. 
 
Even though the tax department wanted to arrest Mallya last year, it was rebuffed by a Mumbai metropolitan magistrate on the execution of a personal recognisance bond of Rs 50 lakh. Ecen then, the tax department had argued that Mallya could leave the country and had asked the court to ask him to surrender his passport, but that didn’t happen and as a result, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/Vijay-Mallyas-journey-from-a-businessman-to-a-fraudster/articleshow/51328653.cms" target="_BLANK￿￿￿￿">Mallya has fled the country</a>.

Vijay Mallya's personal Airbus jet to be auctioned to recover government’s dues

As told earlier, India’s liquor baron <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/A-little-too-late-Mallya-flew-out-of-India-before-banks-could-take-a-stay-order-against-him/articleshow/51323634.cms">Vijay Mallya</a> who owes thousands of crores to several <keyword id="488657" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="state-run-banks">state-run banks</keyword>, has fled the country. The legal battle in the Supreme Court and Debt Recovery Tribunal against Mallya is being led by SBI. 
 
 
Here is the breakdown of Mallya’s journey from a businessman to a wilful defaulter. 
 
1) Mallya owes nearly Rs 7,000 crore to bankers. Here's how it stacks up 
 
Rs 1,600 crore - SBI 
 
Rs 800 crore - PNB 
 
Rs 800 crore - IDBI 
 
Rs 650 crore - Bank of India 
 
Rs 550 crore - Bank of Baroda 
 
Rs 430 crore - United Bank of India 
 
Rs 410 crore - Central Bank of India 
 
Rs 320 crore - UCO Bank 
 
Rs 310 crore - Corporation Bank 
 
Rs 150 crore - State Bank of Mysore 
 
Rs 140 crore - Indian Overseas Bank 
 
Rs 90 crore - Federal Bank 
 
Rs 60 crore - Punjab &amp; Sind Bank 
 
Rs 50 crore - Axis Bank 
 
He, however, claims that out of these 7000 crores, Rs 1,200 crore have been recovered by these banks. 
 
2. A look at his holdings in his companies 
 
33% in United Breweries, which is worth Rs 7,000 crore. But more than half of the stake is pledged. 
 
22% interest in Mangalore Chemicals &amp; Fertilisers, which is worth Rs 140 crore. One-third of the shares are pledged. 52%of UB Holdings, a shell company, which has some real estate in Bangalore and other places, but the rentals have already been pledged. 
Under 1% stake in Bayer Corp Science, but Mallya remains its chairman. 
 
3. How Mallya became Mallya 
 
1983 | After his father's death, Mallya becomes UB group chairman at 28. 
1999 | Launches Kingfisher Strong, which changes beer consumption nationally, is still the largest selling brand. 
2002 | Nominated to Rajya Sabha. 
 
4. Mallya's shopping list 
 2005 | Launches <keyword id="6373962" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Kingfisher-Airlines">Kingfisher Airlines</keyword> (KFA). Buys Shaw Wallace, gaining whisky brands such as Royal Challenge 
2006 | Buys Herbertsons, makers of Bagpiper whisky and Romanov vodka. 
2007 | Buys F1 team Spyker, renames it Force India. Acquires Air Deccan. Buys British whisky maker Whyte and Mackay for £595m. 
2008 | Buys IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore for $111.6m. UB City comes up in Bangalore. 
 
5. And, how it got ruined 
2012 | KFA staff strike work for nonpayment of salaries, income-tax dept freezes KFA accounts, airline grounds flights. In Oct, govt suspends KFA licence. British alcoholic beverages firm Diageo agrees to buy majority stake in United Spirits 
2013 | Diageo acquires 27% stake in USL for Rs 6,500 crore, but KFA lenders do not get any funds. 
2014 | United Bank identifies United Breweries Holdings as wilful defaulter. 
2015 | Diageo asks Mallya to step down as chairman of the Indian liquor firm but he refuses. 
2016 | Banks move debt recovery tribunal, which restrains Mallya from accessing Rs 515 crore he was to receive from Diageo as settlement after agreeing to quit. 
 
6. The pain of Kingfisher’s employees 
Over 1,500 staffers, still on the firm's payrolls after it stopped operation, not paid? On March 5, employees write an open letter to Mallya, saying his 'heart is impure' and he has blood on his hands. They seek PM Narendra Modi's help to get their dues. 
 
7. Despite whatever he says, Mallya isn’t a broke bloke 
 
Mallya owns homes in Trump Towers, New York City, and in San Francisco. Game resort in South Africa. A beachfront villa in Goa. He also has a fleet of over 200 luxury vintage cars, a 95m "mega yacht" with a helipad, a Gulfstream private jet.

Vijay Mallya’s journey from a businessman to a fraudster

<ul><li>The Ministry of Home Affairs has empowered the <keyword id="107956" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Serious-Fraud-Investigation-Office">Serious Fraud Investigation Office</keyword> (SFIO) to request the issuance of look-out-circulars (<keyword id="6355098" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="LoC">LOC</keyword>) against people who are suspected of defaulting on large loans. </li><li>Last week, the same power was also granted to the CEOs of India’s public-sector banks, which have largely been the major casualties of these frauds and loan defaults. </li><li>Prior to these changes, the ability to request for LOCs was mainly extended to police authorities, the CBI, Enforcement Directorate, the home and external affairs ministries as well as regional passport offices and customs and tax officials. </li></ul>In the wake of a series of high profile banking scams and loan defaults this year, the most notable of which is <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/here-are-the-main-findings-from-punjab-national-banks-internal-investigation-into-the-2-billion-nirav-modi-scam/articleshow/64681851.cms">the Nirav Modi case</a>, the Indian government is trying to make it easier to prevent fraudsters from escaping the country and taking up residence elsewhere. To this effect, the Ministry of Home Affairs has empowered the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO), which is housed under the corporate affairs ministry, to request the issuance of <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/india/centre-gives-sfio-powers-to-stop-defaulters-from-fleeing-the-country-5468015/">look-out-circulars </a>(LOC) against people who are suspected of defaulting on large loans. Last week, the same power was also granted to the<a href="https://www.livemint.com/Politics/lAjlD5SnzGYkS87SyKxVJI/Govt-authorises-public-sector-bank-CEOs-to-request-for-look.html"> CEOs of India’s public-sector banks</a>, which have largely been the major casualties of these frauds and loan defaults. However, as these public-sector banks aren’t official investigation agencies, the LOCs requested by them can be challenged in court. That is not the case with the SFIO. Prior to these changes, the ability to request for LOCs was mainly extended to police authorities, the CBI, Enforcement Directorate, the home and external affairs ministries as well as regional passport offices and customs and tax officials. A major reason why wilful defaulters like <keyword id="14678" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Vijay-Mallya">Vijay Mallya</keyword>, <keyword id="571991" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Nirav-Modi">Nirav Modi</keyword> and Mehul Choksi were able to flee India for safer havens was because the agencies or entities that caught wind of their crimes did not have the authority to prevent them from fleeing and had to follow protocols and notify higher powers with said authority. By the time formal channels of communication were activated, it was too late. This is reportedly what happened in the case of Vijay Mallya, who fled India in March 2016. The CBI actually <a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/india/cbi-ignored-immigration-alert-on-mallya-leaving-india-on-march-2/story-hW83mkAc6qVe14VyFVOIFJ.html">watered-down the LOC</a> it had filed against the liquor baron in October 2015 from “detain” to “inform” after citing a lack of evidence and Mallya’s supposed intention to cooperate, which eventually allowed him to leave the country. The CBI had actually taken over the case from the SFIO, which had been looking into the diversion of funds at Mallya’s companies in September 2015. By broadening the number of stakeholders that can ask for the arrest of a <keyword id="2168141" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Wilful-defaulter">wilful defaulter</keyword>, the move could decrease the chances of this happening again in the future, especially in instances where investigations by the police and CBI are hamstrung by “conflicts of interest” or they don’t follow through with arrests. A few months ago, the central government also passed the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/india-takes-its-first-big-step-towards-avoiding-future-nirav-modi-vijay-mallya-like-scams/articleshow/65069668.cms">Fugitive Economic Offenders Act</a>. The law allows the Enforcement Directorate to seize the domestic as well as foreign assets of “economic offenders” who have left the country so their creditors may recover their dues. The crimes involve amounts of ₹1 billion or more.

India’s corporate fraud investigation agency and the CEOs of state-owned banks can now directly prevent scamsters from leaving the country

In a bid to recover more than Rs 9,000 crore, the lenders have now put <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=kingfisher+airlines&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Kingfisher Airlines’ logo</a> on sale with a base price of Rs 366.7 crore. 
 
The lenders have scaled up their efforts to recover the corpus amount from <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=VIJAY+MALLYA&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Vijay Mallya.</a> The bids for the logo have to be submitted by April 30 and SBI Cap Trustee Co is in-charge of the auction process. 
 
“This is part of the 'sale of trademarks including the brand value of 'Kingfisher logo,” it stated.

Also, brands and trademarks relating to the label mark of Kingfisher, Fly Kingfisher, the logo of the Flying Bird Device and the word mark 'Fly the Good Times' associated with KFA have been pledged with banks and will be for e-auction on April 30. 
 
However, there is a small catch as it is unclear how <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Heineken&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Heineken</a> and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=UNITED+BREWERIES&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">United Breweries</a> would take up the logo auction issue. As per reports, the trademarks and other promotional material surrounding the brand 'Fly the Good Times' belong to KFA and it is not clear how another beer company could use it. 
 
"There may not be any legal challenge in selling the brand, but there could be commercial challenges in terms of who would want to buy the brand," Prem Rajani, managing partner at Rajani Associates, a law firm, told ET.

Four more NBWs against Mallya in Hyderabad court

Employees of the defunct <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=kingfisher+airlines">Kingfisher Airlines</a> are vexed and their agony has a solid reason. Apart from not giving dues to several banks, which are now after him to pay Rs 7, 000 crore, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=VIJAY+MALLYA">Vijay Mallya</a> owes Rs 300 crore in salary to around 3000 employees. 
 Nearly 900 employees who are still employed with the <keyword id="6373962" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kingfisher-Airlines">Kingfisher Airlines</keyword> on paper and 2000 more who left since 2015 haven’t received their salaries. 
 
While many of the employees have changed their jobs, the ground staff, technicians and engineers are still unemployed. 
 
Irate employees had written an open letter to Mallya. “Your heart is impure and you have blood on your hands. We have so much to tell you but you won’t have patience and time to listen all that. Please do have regret and don’t set precedents dangerous to our country and aspiring entrepreneurs,” stated the employees in the open letter.

Many people who have changed their jobs are also facing a tough time as they are not able to get income tax refunds for the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=IT+department">I-T department</a> keeps adjusting it against tax dues which wasn't submitted by Kingfisher. 
 
Kingfisher Airlines closed its operations in 2012 due to cash and credit issues. It sank with total dues of more than $2 billion to banks, taxmen, employees, leasing companies, airports and other business associates. 
 
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=banks">Banks</a> have been chasing Mallya to get back more than Rs 7,000 crore.
