Amit Gupta is the promoter of Agrifields DMCC and was formerly the promoter of Getax.
Gupta is under scrutiny in a criminal case initiated by the Australian Federal Police (AFP) in February 2020, concerning bribery of foreign public officials in Nauru.
Quoting the Sydney Morning Herald, “The US documents name Getax director Amit Gupta as the ‘target of a criminal investigation who is alleged to have conspired with others to bribe foreign public officials and to have engaged in money laundering and other offenses’.”
Recently, revelations from legally intercepted phone transcripts by the Australian Federal Police have provided additional insights into ongoing legal proceedings.
AFP court documents (“Annexure D”) reveal the issuance of 8 “telephone interception warrants” between October 15, 2012, and April 9, 2013, under “Section 46 of the Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act 1979.”
These transcripts have uncovered various admissions, including discussions about black money and other illicit activities.
Document BN-17 (Batch number 17) of “legally intercepted transcripts” by the Australian Federal Police, which occurred on the 22nd February 2013 at 17:37pm Australia time, showcases a personal and romantic affair between Amit Gupta, and, as per court documents, “U/F”/unknown female. It was translated by Interpreter Bhim Nagpal in March 2016. The document is 14-pages.
Amit Gupta asks the U/F, “Do I have a positive image or not?”, to which she replies with “Of course. [laughs], And I don’t want to spoil that, you know”.
Amit Gupta proceeds to inform her that “You’re my lucky mascot, my dear”, and informs her, reads Page 13 of the official intercepted transcript, “You are so capable, for that, you should say thanks to god who made you so capable. Ask, why did he do that? (Laughs) Ask me”.
Amit proceeds to end the call with “Yes, you’re right dear!” and that “As long as you continue to be my lucky mascot. That is all I want”.
Additionally, on the call Amit informs this U/F that he was “handling all the accounts and things of the family” and that he “literally had a nervous breakdown” when there “was an enquiry from the tax office”, going on to say “I know what’s right and wrong. And nobody else”.
This narrative gains further attention amid ongoing Income Tax investigations in India, accompanied by FIR filings and revelations from intercepted transcripts, shedding light on Gupta’s financial dealings and personal relationships, adding complexity to the evolving story.
