The three-member committee headed by former chief justice Rajendra Lodha proposed the sanctions Tuesday, saying that Chennai team principal Gurunath Meiyappan and Rajasthan co-owner Raj Kundra had been found to have indulged in betting on matches and been in contact with illegal bookmakers, "bringing the game, BCCI and IPL into disrepute."
Meiyappan is the son-in-law of International Cricket Council chairman Narainaswamy Srinivasan, who had earlier been restricted by the court from running for another term as president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India owing to a conflict of interest. His company, India Cements, held a stake in the Chennai franchise.
The Supreme Court committee was formed in January to decide on the scope of punishment following a probe by a separate committee that found the clubs and both officials guilty.
Meiyappan, who was detained for two weeks by Mumbai Police in 2013 over allegations of spot-fixing, was cleared by a BCCI-appointed panel but a petition from the Cricket Association of Bihar led to the Bombay High Court declaring that panel "illegal and unconstitutional."
The Cricket Association of Bihar then took the issue to the Supreme Court, which ordered an investigation into the conduct of Srinivasan and 12 others.
The fixing controversy erupted during the 2013 IPL competition when a small group of players, including former test bowler Shantakumaran Sreesanth, were arrested for allegedly deliberately conceding a set number of runs in exchange for money from illegal gamblers.
