In a media statement on Tuesday, Future Retail said the company, after due approval from the Competition Commission of India (CCI) and no objection from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), had filed the scheme of arrangement before the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Mumbai on January 26, 2021. The application is yet to be taken up by NCLT.
"The Learned Single Judge, Justice Midha, of Hon’ble Delhi High Court today, in a petition filed by Amazon for enforcement of the interim award of the Emergency Arbitrator, has ordered status quo with respect to the scheme of arrangement. The company is legally advised that the basis of the interim award of the Emergency Arbitrator has been superseded by the judgement dated December 21, 2020, passed by the Learned Single Judge, Justice Mukta Gupta of Hon’ble Delhi High Court. The company will explore all legal remedies and take appropriate steps to pursue the scheme of the arrangement," it said.
