The Chinese company was on the radar of Indian security agencies
According to sources, India-based companies of Vivo Mobile Communications had come under the radar of Indian agencies for alleged financial irregularities during the investigation of other Chinese firms. The Corporate Affairs Ministry was also alert about the irregularities in the financial matters of the company. In April this year, the ministry was asked to investigate irregularities in ownership and financial reporting against Vivo company.
China's Foreign Ministry said – We always asked our companies to follow the laws
At the same time, now after the action of ED against the Chinese company Vivo, a statement has also been issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China in this matter. In a statement issued by China's Foreign Ministry, it has been said that they are monitoring the sequence of events beyond. The Chinese government has always asked Chinese companies to comply with laws and regulations when doing business abroad. We also strongly cooperate with Chinese companies in protecting their legitimate rights and interests.
China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian has said that we hope that the Indian agencies will impartially investigate the matter because they are fair, just, and non-discriminatory to Chinese companies investing and operating in India while carrying out investigation and enforcement activities. Provide a discriminatory business environment.
