Final closure email from Stan Chart (Annapoorna - Head Service Office)

Attached email from Head Quality assures closure and assurance that there will be no more calls from M/s Shaha Finlease.

Shaha Finlease Pvt Ltd

Recently I got calls on behalf of Standard Chartered Bank from 022-61718929/27 and at the end I was informed by Head.Service@SC.COM that "The calls that you have been receiving were made from the M/s Shaha Finlease. These calls are associated with a set of NPA (Non performing assets) accounts which were sold off to M/s Shaha finlease in 2010 vide a Deed of Assignment with them. As part of this Assignment, SCB has transferred all rights and liabilities to M/s Shaha Finlease Ltd."
They also added "We have requested them to stop the calls basis your recent email to us. We have also given feedback to M/s Shaha Finlease that they need to ensure complete due diligence is done before establishing contact for payment recovery.
In this regard, would it be possible for us to speak with you for a few minutes at your convenience? I am available at +91 44 30449004. Please do let me know what time would be convenient to you."


Standard Chartered Bank was helpful but they were also trying to wash their hands-off from any legal liability due to the reckless behavior of M/s Shaha Finlease.


On close scrutiny this is what M/s Shaha Finlease is all about

Call from Annapoorna (Office of Head Customer Service - StanChart)

I got a call from 044-49549000 at 2:38 pm on Dec 7, 2016 from Annapoorna. She wanted to cross-verify certain information that she claimed that she will forward to M/s Shaha Finlease.


The information that I provided was that I do service and not self-employed and my father's name is Vrajlal and not Vinodrai. She mentioned that the wife's name of Manish Vinodrai was Bela and she asked if I ever had an account with Jankalyan Bank (I did not).


I did not entertain their request on my DoB.


She has promised that she will forward this to M/s Shaha Finlease and stop this nonsense once & for all (but I doubt that will ever happen).


Addendum on Dec 8, 2016
Surprisingly this number is also reported as SPAM on Truecaller

Closure Email from Standard Chartered bank

I received the attached email as part of closure of recent calls.

Are the calls from 022-66716715 & 022-61718929 linked?

Yesterday there were lot of views to the blog. Surprisingly one of the entry point was using the following URL. Someone associated with 02266716715 was looking at my blog. The call from this number actually had come long time back from LIC. Why would this person become active based on the email link that I sent to STANCHART regarding the other Mumbai numbers.


https://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=02266716715




This whole episode including the Facebook post from Ashwini Desai indicates that this is lot more sinister then what it appears. This appears to be quite similar to the Call center folks who were recently arrested for threatening US Citizens by fake calls from IRS.


Whether the employees of Standard Chartered Bank are involved in these purported acts of harassment and black-mailing is not clear but this certainly requires further investigation by Crime branch and/or legal authorities.

Similar calls from 022-61718929 reported by others!!!!

I just bumped into this information while searching for this number in Google...

Additional Calls from 022617189xx series

I received 5 missed calls from 022-61718927 on my cell and few from 022-61718929 on my landline around 10:30 am on December 3, 2016. Despite my informing them that I am not the same Manish Badani that they are looking for these guys are aggressively trying to pursue me. Previously there were calls from 022-61718943. All 3 numbers are reported as SPAM on Truecaller; the 43 series is reported as BlueDart Mumbai, 27 as Stan Chart Bom-2 and 29 as Shaha Fineless.


The modus operandi is the same; first courier service calls looking for Manish Badani  that wants to know where to send the courier meant for Ghatkopar and then they recklessly continue to pursue my numbers.


These folks have a value system that is worst than that of ROAD SIDE PROSTITUTES and PIMPS but represent themselves as bank employees of some private banks. They actually represent the FILTH that is present in our society and they are literally GUTTER CLASS.


I have forward these numbers to TRAI to see if they can help identify their identity; I also forwarded these new events to  Shri Deepak Parekh, Shri K V Kamath and Mumbai RBI Ombudsperson. Mr. Kamath was quite helpful when I faced similar harassment from similar agents representing ICICI Bank.


Let use see if anyone can help tackle these FILTH.

Complained Lodged with Department of Legal Affairs

Call from 02261718929 (Standard Chartered Bank??)

I got a call at 10:30 am from 02261718929 claiming to be from Standard Chartered Bank. This was regarding a loan of Rs. 3 lakhs taken in 2004 by "Manish Badani". Without even verifying if I am the same Manish Badani the lady started making the claim; just one of those gutter-class idiot who faked as a Professional Bank Representative.




Amazing how Manish Vinodrai Badani was able to dupe so many Private banks; how did so many Private banks gave loan to the same person? Doesn't CIBIL come into play?




This number is reported as SPAM in Truecaller under the name "Shaha Fineless". Definetly the call came from a disgusting low-life who like many others like her did this under-handed job to make a living.


Continue to be Disgusted,


Manish (NOT VINODRAI) Badani

Filth in the Private Banks

The latest headlines today "IT dept raids Delhi Axis bank branch for black money"; the staff members of this bank helped exchange black money in crores for new currency in exchange for Gold Bricks.


Such news involving Private Banks in India is nothing new. There have been instances wherein the Relationship Managers of Private Banks have duped customers or are involved in illegal activities.


These same folks push for loans without proper due diligence to shady characters like Manish Vinodrai Badani. And when these shady characters do a disappearing act, they recruit even more shady and dubious characters for tracing the defaulters.


And in this whole Chakravyuha, folks like me get harassed.

A grievance has been raised with Department of Legal with specific request to take up this matter with Ministry of Home/Finance and appropriate bank heads. Also forwarded is details regarding all calls (including numbers) from various thugs (collection agents).

Call from Advocate Advocate (8425993456)

As expected on November 22, 2016 around 2:45 pm, I got repeated calls from 8425993456 (3 missed calls); this number is reported as SPAM under the name "Advocate Advocate". Reminds me of "Advocate Mhatre"; this feku called on behalf of ICICI Bank and got scared when I confronted him with all the facts.

Call from 02261718943

Series of calls came from 02261718943 to my cell no., company desk number and residence number around 1530 hrs on November 21, 2016. Neither of these calls were answered but the fact that they were made to all my numbers indicated that these calls were not from genuine bank representatives. It is almost 10 months since the last call came for Manish Vinodrai Badani and this period seems to be common for reopening his file.


On True-caller this number is posted as SPAM under Standard Chartered Bank, Mumbai.


If anyone can help identify the true identity of this number, that will be appreciated. If again a call comes from this number then I will report this to Home Ministry.
