The Hon''ble Supreme Court also granted liberty to the petitioners to revive the petitions after the decision is given by the BIFR. Currently, the case filed before BIFR stands abated and the Company has not initiated any proceedings before the NCLT.

The Committee for Rehabilitation (CRF) scrutinised the company''s application for restructuring the SDF loan in the meeting dated 28th March 2022 and recommended for consideration of restructuring the SDF loan by the Standing Committee. The Standing Committee in its meeting dated 22nd April 2022 considered the recommendations by CRF and recommended for Administrative Approval (AA) from the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food, and Public Distribution, for restructuring of the SDF loan and waiver of additional interest in full in respect of SDF loans. The Central Government has granted Administrative Approval (AA) on 20th May 2022 and the company had entered into Tripartite Agreement (TPA) for the Restructuring of the SDF Loan with GOI and the nodal agency (IFCI) on 18th August 2022.
