Lalit Modi has urged the Supreme Court to direct the BCCI to pay a Rs 10 crore penalty to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) regarding financial irregularities in the 2009 IPL season held in South Africa. The ED's investigation revealed FEMA violations, accusing the BCCI of remitting Rs 243 crore to Cricket South Africa without RBI permission.

The Supreme Court declined to hear Lalit Modi's plea seeking BCCI to cover the Rs 10 crore fine imposed for FEMA violations during the 2009 IPL season in South Africa. Modi argued that BCCI indemnified other officials like Srinivasan and Pandove but not him.
