In two places -the Parliamentary Committee report on CIS and on the Sebi website.

The regulator has banned these companies from collecting investments and directed them to refund investors.

Investors in such schemes are generally stuck with their money ,or plot of land or a piece of art or any such promises made by these companies.However, after these orders by Sebi it is unlikely for investors to get back what was promised by the companies because there is no mechanism to ensure every investors interest.
