New Delhi: Rejecting
allegations of stashing away unaccounted money in Swiss accounts, Jet
Airways on Friday said there is no account in the name of its Chairman
Naresh Goyal in HSBC Bank, Geneva though he is entitled to have bank
accounts outside India as he is an NRI. "...There is no account in the
name Mr Naresh Goyal in the Swiss bank as has been alleged. Besides, Mr
Naresh Goyal has been an NRI since January 1991. He is entitled to have
bank accounts outside India.
"The suggestion that
there has been any unaccounted money stashed away in Swiss accounts is
entirely false," a statement issued by Jet Airways said. The carrier
said Goyal is an NRI and had received a routine enquiry letter from the
Income Tax Department regarding a bank account at HSBC Geneva of M/S
Tailwinds Ltd, a company based in the Isle of Man.
"The existence
of the company M/S Tailwinds is fully disclosed to various departments
of the government of India. All questions have been satisfactorily
replied to the Income Tax Department," it said.
Jet Airways in its statement said that as Naresh Goyal is an NRI since 1991, he is entitled to have bank accounts outside India.
