RCap subsidiaries to get listed by mid-2026, 2027
Lenders to debt-ridden Reliance Capital Ltd (RCAP) have alleged that Hinduja Group firm IIHL is indulging in delaying tactics, resulting in slowdown in implementation of the resolution plan. Mauritius-based IndusInd International Holdings Ltd (IIHL) emerged as a successful bidder for acquisition of Reliance Capital. The NCLT Mumbai on February 27, 2024, approved IIHL's Rs 9,861-crore resolution plan for the debt-ridden financial firm. According to sources, lenders claimed that IIHL's move to seek approval from the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP) is an afterthought. It was not even a part of conditions set out by the NCLT while approving the resolution plan on February 27, 2024. The message sent to IIHL for comments on the issue did not elicit response till the filing of the story. According to sources, 90 days have passed since IIHL submitted the application with DIPP, but the approval is still pending. DIPP approval is required as some of the shareholders o
Hinduja Group-owned IndusInd International Holdings on Wednesday contended before the National Company Law Tribunal that the GST liability of Rs 850 crore is a sticky issue in the implementation of Reliance Capital's resolution plan. Senior counsel Abhishek Manu Singhvi, representing IndusInd International Holdings, told the tribunal that it has received 7 approvals, including from the RBI and Sebi. He said that as directed by the tribunal on August 12, IIHL held a joint meeting with the CoC to sort out various issues. Singhvi, however, raised concern over the GST liability of Rs 850 crore. He further said that the company is prepared to pay Rs 9,861 crore, however, there is an issue of GST liability of Rs 850 crore. "We had a joint meeting (IIHL and the CoC) to sort out issues. However, the GST liability remains a sticky issue. The GST liability of Rs 850 crores is clearly already covered in the NCLT February 27 order, which says waiver of any tax, including but not limited to in
Lenders to debt-ridden Reliance Capital (RCAP) have raised concerns regarding the term sheet provided by the Hinduja Group firm IIHL for Rs 7,300 crore debt mobilisation to fund acquisition. The committee of creditors (CoC) has expressed concerns that bankers to IndusInd International Holdings Ltd (IIHL) have imposed numerous conditions for offering Rs 7,300 crore debt and some of these conditions can only be met by IIHL after the resolution plan has been executed, sources said. This makes the drawdown of funds needed to settle payments to the debtors of RCAP for the resolution plan virtually impossible, sources said. Message to IIHL seeking comments on the issue did not elicit any response till the filing of the story. Besides, sources said, the term sheets indicate that additional terms and conditions may be introduced in the final binding agreements. The CoC has requested that IIHL should also provide these definitive documents for review, they said. Notably, IIHL is raising R
