The only resolution plan submitted failed to get the required creditor approval, and the NCLT pronounced the liquidation order on May 27, 2022.

The NCLT has granted multiple extensions to complete the liquidation process, with this being a further compliance update filed on July 3, 2025.

Likely market impact

This is highly negative for shareholders — liquidation of the company typically means equity holders are the last in line to receive any value, and most often get nothing. The stock has been suspended/trading in the junk category for years, and this update confirms there is no revival plan, only a wind-down of the business.
