Reliance Industries rose 1.82% to Rs 2420.65 after the Ahmedabad Bench of the National Company Law Tribunal has approved the resolution plan jointly submitted by RIL and Assets Care & Reconstruction Enterprise for the resolution of Sintex Industries.

In a regulatory filing made after trading hours yesterday, the conglomerate said that the National Company Law Tribunal, Ahmedabad Bench, has approved the resolution plan jointly submitted by Reliance Industries (RIL) and Assets Care & Reconstruction Enterprise (ACRE) for the resolution of Sintex Industries under the corporate insolvency resolution process of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016.

"Certain transactions relating to implementation of Resolution Plan will be subject to obtaining necessary regulatory approvals, RIL said in a statement.

In an exchange filing made yesterday, Sintex Industries said that the NCLT has orally pronounced an order on Friday (10 February 2023) approving the resolution plan submitted jointly by RIL and ACRE.

It further informed that the approved Reliance-ACRE plan contains the reduction of share capital and delisting of equity shares with nil value.

As per media reports, RIL-ACRE had offered about Rs 3,650 crore. The lenders of Sintex Industries had reportedly voted in favour of the joint bid of RIL & ACRE, following which the resolution professional of the company in March last year moved the NCLT for its final approval. Sintex Industries had also received bids from Welspun Group firm Easygo Textiles, GHCL and Himatsingka Ventures along with Shrikant Himatsingka and Dinesh Kumar Himatsingka, the reports added.

Insolvency proceedings against Sintex Industries were initiated in April last year. Claims of about Rs 7,500 crore were admitted against the company, media reports stated.
