Patanjali Ayurved is under investigation by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs for suspicious financial transactions flagged as potentially irregular by economic intelligence agencies. The company has two months to respond to the notice, amid ongoing regulatory challenges including tax violations and misleading advertising claims.

The bank, now owned by UBS, faces a $510 million fine following a lengthy investigation by US law enforcement.
Oregon Senator Ron Wyden is urging federal prosecution following Credit Suisse's $511 million settlement in a tax evasion case.

Following a merger with UBS AG, the latter discovered and froze some undeclared U.S. accounts, agreeing to cooperate with ongoing investigations.
