CRITICAL DETAIL: The disbursement authorisation form was presented to the bank by Reena Mehrotra in person on 27 February 2025. The signature on the form purports to be that of Vikram Desai.

Note on ₹80,000 Credit — 24 February 2025
The ₹80,000 credit on 24 February 2025 originates from a Kothrud-area HDFC account. Forensic digital analysis of Reena Mehrotra's email (E17) references a payment of ₹80,000 "through the usual arrangement" to a Sharma & Partners-linked contact. This transaction is consistent with payment for ghostwriting legal arguments for opposing counsel — a separate Bar Council violation.
