Background of JAL Insolvency
JAL, which has a business across different segments like real estate, cement manufacturing, hospitality and engineering & construction, was admitted into the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) in 2024 after it defaulted on payments of loans. The conglomerate’s creditors are claiming an amount worth Rs 57,185 crore. Presently, the National Asset Reconstruction Company (NARCL) leads the list of claimants after acquiring the stressed JAL loans from a consortium of lenders led by the State Bank of India (SBI).
How big is JAL?
JAL has attracted giants like billionaire Gautam Adani-led Adani Group and mining mogul Anil Agarwal’s Vedanta, particularly due to its strategic importance in the Delhi-NCR region. The insolvent conglomerate has major real estate projects like Jaypee Greens in Greater Noida, a part of Jaypee Greens Wishtown in Noida, and Jaypee International Sports City. It has three commercial/industrial office spaces in Delhi-NCR and its hotel division has five properties in Delhi-NCR, Mussoorie, and Agra.
