Bengaluru, Mar 5: The Karnataka government has constituted a competent authority for I Monetary Advisory (IMA) cases under the KPIDFE (Karnataka Protection of Interest of Depositors in Financial Establishments) Act, 2004, which is required to call claims from erstwhile depositors of the IMA group of entities under the provisions of the Act, said Harsh Gupta, Special Officer and Competent Authority for IMA cases.
In order to ensure transparency and to avoid harassment to the claimants, an online application software has been developed for accepting claims from the depositors, Gupta stated.
"The claim application can be filed from any of Banglore-1, Karnataka-1 and Seva-Sindhu Kendras of the state government in person or through online. The required documents can be submitted using e-attestation along with claims or at a later date, but prior to the claim settlement. The details of authorities for e-attestation will be informed later," the official stated.
The claimants will have to provide Aadhaar authentication based identification or identification by the designated officer based on alternate documents; current mobile number and address among others.
The details of the draft claim filing process has been put for public feedback on website 'imaclaims.karnataka.gov.in'. The depositors can give their feedback on the website, WhatsApp number or email, Gupta stated.
Based on feedback received from the depositors, the claim process and the claim application software will be finalised, the official said and further informed that the start date for acceptance of claims will be informed through wide publicity at a later date.
"There will be a total time period of 30 days for submission of the claims from the start date of acceptance of claims," Gupta said.
An SIT was investigating the multi-crore IMA Jewels case, where the firm had allegedly cheated a large number of investors after promising them impressive returns on their deposits. The SIT has already arrested several government officials and questioned others including politicians in the matter.
The prime accused and Managing Director of IMA Mohammed Mansoor Khan, who had fled the country after several complaints were registered against him in connection with the scam, has also been arrested.
The state government had constituted an SIT to probe the scam when it first came to light in June earlier this year when more than 4,000 investors trooped outside the showroom after an audio clip purportedly recorded by Khan went viral.

Shaji, Rich people have already got their black money in white before 8th November, they have been informed before hand by Feku....no one died from rich and other political parties..
Prime Minister Sab, what is happening.... people are dying...have mercy on them....
According ruling BJP, people will have to sacrifice for ache din and this is what happening. Ruling party is not worried about the daily deaths of people becoz all of them are from poor family whereas rich people are relaxing since they got the money exchanged in advacne of the declaration. I think bjp is not feeling shame for running Govt on the dead bodies and they feel proud of these deaths telling this is a sacrifice for bright future of India. None of the people who has black money every stood in the que. BJP leaders received new currency in advance. I dont know how many more poor people will have to die before the situation becomes normal. shamelsss govt is still justifying their decision. Mukhtar Abbas is actign as if he is an agent of Devil.
Insane Modi Bhakts like Naren might be happy after reading this news.
According to Bhakta\s they are sacrificing their lives for the country.
