R-Infra, R-Power say no impact on biz after SBI's action against R-Com
R-Infra and R-Power are separate and independent listed entities with no business or financial linkage to R-Com, both companies said in separate stock exchange filings on Thursday. Further, Ambani is not on the board of R-Infra or R-Power. Accordingly, any action taken concerning R-Com has no bearing or impact on the governance, management, or operations of R-Infra and R-Power, the two companies claimed.
Earlier, on Wednesday, R-Com disclosed to the exchanges that SBI had decided to classify the company's loan account as 'fraud' due to irregularities in the conduct of the account. SBI is also set to report both the account and Ambani, a director at R-Com, to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).
'We have taken cognisance of the responses (wherever received) to our show-cause notice (SCN), and after due examination of the same, it is concluded that sufficient reasons have not been provided by the respondent to explain the non-adherence to the agreed terms and conditions of the loan documents or the irregularities observed in the conduct of the account of Reliance Communications to the satisfaction of the bank,' SBI said in a letter to R-Com on June 23, which the company received on June 30.
The company has, however, clarified that the classification of 'fraud' by SBI is not expected to have any impact on it and that it is seeking legal advice on the same.
Besides, R-Com is undergoing a corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. A resolution plan has been approved by the committee of creditors of the company and is presently awaiting approval from the National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench.
A meeting of the committee of the company's creditors has been scheduled for Friday.

Adani Group may soon buy another company and this time, the group has offered Rs. 12,500 crore to take over Jaiprakash Associates Limited (JAL), a company that is currently going through bankruptcy. According to a report by Business Standard , people familiar with the matter say that Adani Group is now the top bidder to buy JAL. Sources also shared that Adani has made a strong offer by promising to pay more than Rs. 8,000 crore in advance and that too without putting any conditions. Interestingly, Dalmia Group is also in the race to buy JAL. They are willing to match Adani's offer but only if a legal issue linked to JAL's Sports City project is resolved. That issue is still pending in the Supreme Court. Earlier, in March, the Allahabad High Court had already upheld a decision related to the same case. For now, Adani Group seems to be ahead in the bid to take over the troubled company. About Jaiprakash Associates? Jaiprakash Associates is a infrastructure company that works in different sectors like real estate, cement, power, and hotels. Right now, the company is facing a financial crisis and is going through bankruptcy under India's Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). Many big companies are interested in buying Jaiprakash Associates. Some of the well-known names in the race include Vedanta, Jindal Power, and PNC Infratech. All these companies took part in a meeting held on July 1, 2025, to discuss bids and valuations. Jaiprakash Associates released a statement saying that it is carefully reviewing all the offers to choose the best possible solution. While no final decision has been made yet, sources say that the Adani Group's offer of Rs. 12,500 crore is currently the most promising and puts them ahead of the others in the bidding process.
