IL&FS filed for bankruptcy in 2018. The money laundering probe into alleged financial irregularities at IL&FS was launched by the ED in 2019 after the federal agency took cognizance of a Delhi Police Economic Offences Wing (EOW) FIR filed against IRL, ITNL (group companies of IL&FS), its officials, and others.
