THE BRIEF
1

The National Company Law Tribunal approved a repayment plan for Essel Group founder Subhash Chandra, allowing creditors to recover only ₹6.5 crore against admitted claims of ₹22,006.57 crore.

2

The recovery represents a haircut of approximately 99.97% for lenders, stemming from a personal guarantee provided by Mr. Chandra for a ₹170-crore loan to Vivek Infracon Private Limited.

Several creditors, including HDFC Bank, have formally opposed the NCLT-approved plan and are currently evaluating options to file an appeal against the resolution.
