Relax, It's Only A Raid: Confessions Of A Crisis Manager

Received a tax notice that makes your stomach drop? Been named in an FIR for something you didn’t do? ED officers at your door at 7 a.m.? Union trouble threatening to shut your plant? Local mafia muscling in on your business?

When crises hit companies, they call Vineet Relia. Vineet was once the managing director of a `1,000-crore FDI backed real-estate company. By 2020, he was facing 213 civil lawsuits and 11 criminal FIRs, and the tag of Accused No. 10.

Today, he helps companies weather the same storms that he survived. As a crisis manager, he’s walked executives through raids, FIRs, ED interrogations, extortion attempts and boardroom betrayals. In this book, he writes about his cases with humour and gripping honesty, dispensing hard-won advice along the way. (Hide an extra phone in your socks during a raid. You’ll need it.)

If you want to know how India really works and how to survive when the system comes for you, read this unputdownable book.

Vineet Relia spent three decades climbing the corporate ladder: CTO of a BPO, then managing director of a `1,000-crore FDI-backed real-estate company. By 2020, he was facing 213 civil lawsuits and 11 criminal FIRs. That experience became the foundation of Inojo Interim Management, the crisis management firm he founded in 2019. Beyond crisis leadership, Vineet has built and scaled multiple ventures across real estate and sustainability.
