Big relief to Anil Ambani in Rs 920000000 case, NCLAT stays insolvency proceedings against…, after full payment to…

Anil Ambani (File) Reliance Infrastructure Ltd announced on Friday that the appellate tribunal NCLAT has halted insolvency proceedings against the company after it repaid Rs 92.68 crore related to tariff obligations under an energy purchase agreement. What Was NCLT's Order Against Reliance Infra? Reliance Infrastructure in its latest regulatory filing said that the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) has stayed an NCLT order over an appeal filed by it. The Mumbai bench of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) on May 30 this year directed initiation of the corporate insolvency resolution process and appointment of an interim resolution professional against Reliance Infrastructure. The NCLT order came after IDBI Trusteeship in April 2022 had filed a petition alleging a default of Rs 88.68 crore plus interest as of August 28, 2018. In a regulatory filing on June 2 this year, Reliance Infrastructure said the NCLT order has become infructuous 'upon full payment having already been made'. On June 4, NCLAT had suspended the NCLT order while hearing the company's appeal which said it has made the full payment of Rs 92.68 crore to Dhursar Solar Power Pvt Ltd (DSPPL). 'The company has made full payment of Rs 92.68 crore to Dhursar Solar Power Private Limited, towards claim of tariff as per the Energy Purchase Agreement with the company,' Reliance Infra had said in its June 2 statement. What Were Allegations Against Reliance Infra? IDBI Trusteeship in its petition had alleged payment defaults on 10 invoices raised between 2017 and 2018 by DSPPL for supplying solar energy to Reliance Infrastructure. The payments were sought by IDBI Trusteeship, the security trustee of DSPPL. (With Inputs From PTI)

Reliance Retail Ventures Limited (RRVL) on Friday reported a 33.2% year-on-year rise in its net profit, reaching Rs 3,267 crore for the first quarter of the financial year 2025-26 (FY26). Executive director Isha Ambani said, 'Reliance Retail delivered resilient performance during this quarter, driven by our relentless focus on operational excellence, geographical expansion, and a sharper product portfolio. Our continued investments in cutting-edge technologies and differentiated product offerings have enabled us to serve our customers better and scale with agility." Reliance Retail's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation) from operations increased 10.9% to Rs 6,044 crore. The firm's revenue from operations stood at Rs 73,720 crore, up 11.3% year-on-year, while its gross revenue also rose by 11.3% to Rs 84,171 crore. Sequentially, revenue from operations decreased by 6.2%, and net profit dropped by 7.2%. Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries, said in a statement, 'Retail's business performance registered customer base expansion to 358 million, along with significant improvement across operating metrics.' He added, 'We are focusing on strengthening the portfolio of our own FMCG brands, which resonate with the tastes of Indian consumers. Our Retail business continues to enhance its ability to fulfil everyday as well as specialised needs of all customer cohorts, through a multi-channel approach.' During the quarter, the company opened 388 new stores, taking its total store count to 19,592 with a total area of 77.6 million square feet. For the quarter ended June, its finance cost was up 7.6% year-on-year, totalling Rs 592 crore. The company's registered customer base grew to 358 million, making Reliance Retail one of the most preferred retailers in the country, according to its release. The company also highlighted that JioMart continued to expand quick hyper-local deliveries, registering a 68% quarter-on-quarter growth and 175% year-on-year growth in daily orders. Reliance Retail's consumer electronics business achieved steady growth, driven by a 26% increase in average bill value and a 200 basis point increase in conversions year-on-year. However, air conditioner sales were impacted due to the early onset of the monsoon, the company said. Its fashion and lifestyle business experienced growth in revenue and EBITDA, driven by new store formats and strong performance of its own brands. 'Growth has picked up with multiple initiatives undertaken in the last four quarters, including Reliance Trends launching in-trend designs and improving store experiences. Emerging formats of GAP, Azorte, and Yousta registered a 59% year-on-year growth, now operating in over 170 stores,' RRVL said in its release. It added that Shein continues to receive strong traction, crossing 2 million app downloads and over 20,000 live options.
