New Delhi, April 18 : The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) ruling of last week in the Aircel Vs. Department of Telecommunications (DOT) case has cast a shadow on the resolution plans of Aircel and Reliance Communication Ltd. (RCOM).
According to experts, based on the NCLAT Judgement, the Resolution Plan of UV Asset Reconstruction Company Ltd. (UVARCL) for Aircel, which was approved in June 2020, will be unworkable and the company will be heading for liquidation, resulting in zero recovery for Rs 18,000 crore owed to the lenders.
