The National Sports Club of India (NSCI) has filed a complaint against its ex-chairman, ex-secretary and contractors after the club was allegedly duped of approximately Rs 58 crore. The FIR was filed on December 11 after an audit by KPMG International revealed that the club's previous committee raised bogus bills, approved inflated quotations, awarded contracts to selected contractors and floated tenders fraudulently. The case is being probed by the Mumbai police's Economic Offences Wing.

NSCI members had suspected certain malpractices related to the funds and had written to Kamlesh Talreja, president of the Regional Committee. Thereafter, the KPMG was appointed to audit the club's account from April 1, 2013, to March 32, 2018.
