In the Jet Airways case, appellate tribunal NCLAT on Monday said it will pass the order on May 30 on the winning bidder Jalan Kalrock Consortium's plea seeking to restrain lead lender SBI from encashing performance bank guarantees worth Rs 150 crore. Amid continuing differences between lenders of bankrupt-Jet Airways and the consortium, the appellate tribunal also asked both parties to cooperate with each other for implementation of the resolution plan for the airline. Debt-ridden Jet Airways, which flew for 25 years, shuttered operations on April 18, 2019. The insolvency resolution proceedings against the carrier began in June 2019 and the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) approved the resolution plan submitted by the consortium in June 2021. However, the plan is yet to be implemented, resulting in uncertainty over the future of the once-storied carrier.

Amid the continuing uncertainty over the fate of grounded Jet Airways, the Jalan Kalrock Consortium on Friday said it has not breached any terms of the insolvency resolution plan and might take difficult near-term decisions to manage cashflows. The consortium's resolution plan was approved by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) in June last year but the airline, which also got its air operator certificate revalidated by aviation regulator DGCA in May this year, is yet to start operations. "... while we await the handover of the company as per the NCLT process, the longer-than-expected time being taken for the same may result in some difficult but necessary near-term decisions to manage our cashflows to secure the future while the airline is still not in our possession," the Jalan Kalrock Consortium (JKC) said in a statement.
