Intelligent Communication Systems India Limited (ICSIL) is a joint venture of Telecommunications Consultants India Limited, a Government of India enterprise, and Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation, an undertaking of Delhi government. Rajendra Kumar, IAS officer in Delhi used this company as the vehicle of routing the contracts to Endeavour Systems Private Limited which was floated by the close aides of Kumar.
The CBI registered a case against Kumar and other officers of ICSIL on allegations that these officials abused their official position by “favouring a particular firm in the last few years in getting tenders from Delhi government departments”.
About Endeavour Systems
According to Registrar of Companies (RoC) records, Endeavour Systems was incorporated in 2006 with four directors Yogendra Dahiya, Vikas Kumar, Sandeep Kumar and Dinesh Gupta. Dahiya and Vikas Kumar later resigned from the company leaving Sandeep Kumar and Gupta with 80 per cent and 20 per cent of shares respectively, according to RoC filings
Modus Operandi
The accused allegedly facilitated award of contracts worth Rs.9.50 crore (approx) to the said company through ICSIL (Intelligent Communication Systems India Limited) and misused his official position as public servant.
In the year 2010, as Secretary, Health in the Delhi government, Kumar allegedly facilitated the award of a manpower project worth Rs 2.43 crore to Endeavour Systems, which was allegedly routed through ICSIL without any tendering process. According to the ABPLive reports, there is a possibility of recruitment scam as the recruitment on contract basis was done on a large scale through ICSIL. The missing pages of the files could be related to people who were not eligible for postings and their recruitment was done someone’s behest.
In the year 2012, as commissioner, trade and taxes, Kumar allegedly helped Endeavour Systems to bag a contract worth Rs 3.66 crore for development of software applications for his department which was again routed through ICSIL.
Money Laundering though ICSIL
Former and current Managing directors of Intelligent Communication Systems India Limited are under scrutiny from CBI. These include Anil Kumar Duggal, Gajindra Kumar Nanda and Ripu Sadan Kaushik .
