Vedanta challenges Adani Group's JAL resolution plan in NCLAT, alleging lower bid value than liquidation and lack of transparency in creditor decision-making
Mining giant Vedanta Group on Friday questioned the evaluation metrics adopted by lenders of Jaiprakash Associates Ltd (JAL), which had selected the lower bid of Rs 3,400 crore from Adani Enterprises for the debt-ridden company. During proceedings of the insolvency appellate tribunal National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT), the counsel representing Vedanta Ltd said the "valuation in the process has been used to wipe out commercial wisdom" by the committee of creditors (CoC). Pointing towards the evaluation matrix used by the CoC, senior advocate Abhijeet Sinha asked whether it was used "to achieve value maximisation or is it being used for some other purpose". He submitted that the evaluation matrix, RFRP (request for resolution plan) and process note relied upon by the CoC are merely guiding tools and cannot override the core objective of the insolvency framework, which is maximisation of value. Contending that Vedanta's bid was Rs 3,400 crore higher in gross value and Rs

Business conglomerate Vedanta Group has approached the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT), challenging the NCLT's approval to Adani Group's bid for acquiring Jaiprakash Associates Ltd for Rs 14,535 crore. Anil Agarwal-led Vedanta Group was in the race to acquire Jaiprakash Associates Ltd (JAL) through an insolvency process, but the lenders in November last year approved the resolution plan or bid of Adani Enterprises Ltd. On March 17, the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Allahabad bench, approved Adani Enterprises Ltd's Rs 14,535 crore bid to acquire Jaiprakash Associates Ltd (JAL) through the insolvency process. In a regulatory filing, JAL had informed that the NCLT, Allahabad bench, has "orally pronounced an order on March 17, 2026" approving the resolution plan submitted by Adani Enterprises Ltd. Now, mining giant Vadanta has filed an appeal against the said NCLT order before the appellate insolvency tribunal NCLAT. The matter is listed for hearing on Monday .

Even as tensions stemming from the West Asia crisis unsettle global markets, investors have shown little willingness to part with Adani Group's dollar bonds, despite a buyback by its ports arm, Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ). On March 12, APSEZ, India's largest private port operator, completed a cash tender offer to repurchase parts of two series of US dollar-denominated senior notes, trimming its outstanding debt by about USD 199.5 million, people with direct knowledge of the matter said. The offer covered up to USD 345.1 million of 4 per cent notes due in 2027 and USD 150 million of 3.10 per cent notes due in 2031, suggesting a potential buyback of roughly USD 495 million. Yet bondholders offered back far less than that. APSEZ eventually accepted USD 102.1 million of the 2027 notes and USD 97.5 million of the 2031 notes, they said.
