Debt-laden Bhushan Steel Ltd on Monday said Tata Steel, JSW Living Pvt Ltd and employees of the company have submitted resolution plans to take over its assets.

"We wish to inform you that as part of the resolution process, the resolution professional (RP) has received resolution plans from Tata Steel, JSW Living Private Ltd and Employees of Bhushan Steel Ltd," it said in a regulatory filing to the stock exchange.

JSW Living Pvt Ltd is a joint venture between JSW and Piramal Enterprises.

During intraday trading, company's shares on Monday rose close to 20 per cent to touch a high of Rs 53.85 a scrip on BSE and eventually closed at Rs 53.80.

A broad summary of the resolution plans were presented by the RP to the committee of creditors (CoC) in their meeting held on February 16, the company said.

It also said that the RP and its advisors will now review the plans so as to ensure that these plans are in conformity with the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016, and additional requirements as stipulated by the CoC in the process document.
