The ties between the Hiremaths and Baba Kalyani broke down over control of Kalyani Group company Hikal. The Hiremaths moved the Bombay High Court in 2023 alleging that Kalyani wasn t honouring a family arrangement he had reached with his father that pledged to transfer all the Hikal shares to them. Baba Kalyani said the family arrangement of 1994 was just a "note" by his father Neelkanth Kalyani and not a legally binding document. The case is pending in court.
