TMC paid over 2X average rate for Carewell jet: ED

The Enforcement Directorate is investigating Trinamool Congress's aircraft charter payments. TMC paid substantially more per flying hour for an aircraft than other clients. This disparity was particularly pronounced in 2026, with rates over three times higher. The agency examined four years of aircraft operations and related financial transactions. The probe stems from a cyber crime police FIR and an ECIR under PMLA.
