The CBI registered a preliminary enquiry, naming Videocon Group promoter Venugopal Dhoot, Chanda Kochhar's husband, Deepak Kochhar, and others to investigate the alleged wrongdoing in the sanctioning of a Rs. 3,250 crore ICICI loan to the Videocon Group. On 23 December 2022, the CBI arrested Chanda Kochhar and her husband, Deepak Kochhar, in a case linked to alleged irregularities in an over Rs. 3,000-crore loan provided to the Videocon Group when she was heading the ICCI Bank. In October 2018, she quit as CEO and managing director of ICICI Bank over the same. Ms Kochhar is accused of violating the bank's code of conduct and internal policies to favour Videocon Group, a consumer electronics and oil and gas exploration company. The CBI accused her of criminal conspiracy and cheating for alleged irregularities in a loan of Rs. 3,250 crore in 2012 to the Videocon Group, which became a non-performing asset for the ICICI Bank. Reportedly, her husband, Deepak Kochhar, founded a company named NuPower Renewables in which former Videocon chairman Venugopal Dhoot allegedly invested crores of rupees after the Videocon group was granted a loan by the ICICI Bank. According to the CBI, Ms. Kochhar was a member of the committee that cleard the loan to the Videocon Group. On 23 December 2022, CBI arrested Chanda kochhar and her husband, Deepak Kochhar, for their involvement in the loan fraud case of ICICI Bank.
On 9 January 2023, the Bombay High Court ordered the release of Chanda Kochhar and her husband, Deepak Kochhar, citing their arrest was “illegal” in the ICICI Bank fraud case. According to a division bench of justices Revati Mohitedere and PK Chavan, the arrest was not in accordance with Section 41A (notice of appearance before police officer) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and the bench ordered Ms Kochhar’s release from Byculla jail and Mr Kochhar’s release from Arthur Road Jail on a cash bond of Rs. 1 lakh. On 8 April 2023, the CBI filed a chargesheet against Chanda Kochhar, her husband Deepak Kochhar, and Venugopal Dhoot under Sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy) and 409 (criminal breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act, among others.
