Excerpt from the
Indian angle to the Panama Papers:
MF
records list Indira as a shareholder in Stanbridge Company Ltd, which
was incorporated in 1999 in the BVI. Records show that shares of the
older couple were transferred to their daughters in 2011 and eventually,
in October, 2011 Malika Srinivasan relinquished her shares “for
personal reasons” to one Ved Prakash Ahuja. They also show that shares
of another BVI entity, Auto Engineering Development and Research
Limited, were transferred to Stanbridge. MF records show the company was
struck off the records in September 2015.
Response: Mallika Srinivasan stated: “I wish to clarify that I did
not set up any offshore company and have no connection with Stanbridge
Company Limited. It belongs to Mr V P Ahuja, an NRI…”

You really have to hand it to the 1%, the response is a masterclass in staying on the right side of truth while projecting an air of innocence (assuming they're not brazening it out on the assumption that nothing will come of the whole thing). "...I did not set up any offshore company" (doesn't preclude a registered agent setting it up for her), "...have no connection with Stanbridge Company" (again doesn't preclude having
had a connection) and "It belongs to Mr V P Ahuja" (conveniently doesn't say whom it
had belonged to).
