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 .

Adani group wins lenders' vote to take over Jaiprakash Associates

Adani group has won majority lenders' vote for take over of debt-laden Jaiprakash Associates as its Rs 14,535-crore acquisition proposal included a higher upfront payment than rival bidders, sources said. A Committee of Creditors voted on resolution plans (acquisition proposals) submitted by suitors including Adani Group, Vedanta Ltd and Dalmia Cement (Bharat). Adani got the maximum 89 per cent votes from creditors, followed by Dalmia Cement (Bharat) and Vedanta Group, they added. The National Asset Reconstruction Company Ltd (NARCL) had the biggest say in the process as it controls about 86 per cent of the Committee of Creditors' (CoC) voting share. A small group of lenders, including State Bank of India and ICICI Bank - who together account for less than 3 per cent of CoC's votes - abstained from voting. Sources said lenders preferred Adani's plan primarily because it offered a significantly higher upfront payment compared to competing proposals. The ports-to-energy conglomerate

Adani may pip Vedanta to emerge highest bidder for Jaiprakash Associates

Adani Enterprises Ltd is likely to emerge as the highest bidder to acquire Jaiprakash Associates Ltd (JAL) through insolvency process as its offers to pay acquisition amount in two years have been found better than Vedanta's bid to make payments in five years, sources said. In early September, mining conglomerate Vedanta Group had beaten Adani Group to emerge as the highest bidder, with an offer of Rs 12,505 crore as net present value (NPV), in an auction carried out by lenders to find suitors for JAL, whose interests span real estate, cement, power, hotels, and road. Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd, Jindal Power Ltd, and PNC Infratech Ltd did not bid in the auction process. Later, the lenders held negotiations with these five players to enhance the bid value and maximise realisation. On October 14, these five bidders submitted fresh signed resolution plans in sealed envelopes. According to sources, the committee of creditors (CoC) of JAL met last week to deliberate on these comprehens
