In April 2009, the directors floated another company in the name of Maitreya Plotters and Structures Pvt Ltd. They appointed agents who would encourage people to invest in the company and promised returns in either cash or land after maturity of their invested amount. However, a complaint was filed with the SEBI in 2009-10 regarding this company. SEBI began its scrutiny and found out that the company ran a collective investment scheme without following any of SEBI's regulations. The agency banned the company in August 2013 and asked it to return investors their money.

The investment in the first company was to the tune of Rs1,350 crore and in the second company it was new investment of Rs 818 crore.

The scam came to light after the company failed to repay the investors after the period of maturity of the scheme. The first police case against the company was filed in Nashik on February 5, 2016. Investigations revealed that the company had fixed assests of than Rs 2,000 crore, a holding of 17,000 hectres of agricultural land, land plots in prime locations in almost all major cities in Maharashtra and across eight states.Varsha Satpalkar was arrested by the police.
