The announcement by ED comes hours after Byju's denied receiving any such notice over FEMA violations. “Byju's unequivocally denies media reports that insinuate it has received a notice from the Enforcement Directorate. The company has not received any such communication from the Enforcement Directorate,” the edtech platform had said in a statement earlier on Tuesday.
