The balance $17,500 remained with Indrus. According to Justice Pathak, Masefield paid Hamdaan Exports a total commission of $146,785, that was to be distributed between Sehgal and Khanna in the ratio of 4:1.
However, the report only accounts for $68,293 that were paid into accounts of Sehgal Consultants and Hamdaan Exports and $32,558 “retained” by Aditya Khanna. The beneficiary of the balance $45,934 remains unexplained.
Moreover, while Pathak states that Khanna received a total sum of $32,558 for his role, it only accounts for the $17,500 received by him for Contract No. 57. How he was paid the other $15,008 is another mystery.
