Claims are confirmed and further verification is in process as per the public announcement. A Committee of Creditors was constituted on 21-08-2023, and Mr. Arihant Nenawati was appointed as the new Resolution Professional on 22nd January, 2024.
Other claim under dispute
Shamrao Vithal Co-op Bank Ltd submitted a claim of Rs. 49.72 crore relating to a corporate guarantee issued for subsidiary Labh Ventures India Pvt Ltd. As the guarantee was not invoked before the insolvency commencement date of 16-12-2022, the claim was rejected. The bank's application before NCLT Mumbai was dismissed by order dated 27th March, 2025, and its appeal before the NCLAT is pending.
The loans earlier held by Assets Care & Reconstruction Enterprises Limited were re-assigned to Prudent ARC Limited through a deed of assignment dated 11th August, 2023.
How to read this
