Promoter Ne Auction Ke Baad Full Settlement Plan Pesha Kiya
Aviom India Housing Finance ki promoter, Kajal Ilmi, ne company ko chal rahi bankruptcy proceedings se bahar nikalne ke liye ek revised settlement proposal pesh kiya hai. Yeh kadam Unity Small Finance Bank dwara challenge auction mein Aviom India Housing Finance ko ₹977.5 crore ki offer ke saath sabse badi boli lagane ke baad aaya hai.
Core Issue
Aviom India Housing Finance ne insolvency proceedings mein pravesh kiya tha jab auditors ne uske financial statements mein mahatvapurna discrepancies ko highlight kiya tha. Isse National Housing Bank dwara ek jaanch hui aur ant mein administrator dwara ₹1,363 crore ke total 60 claims ko admit kiya gaya. Haal hi mein hui auction mein Unity Small Finance Bank ne jeetne wali boli lagayi, lekin promoter ki nayi proposal ek formal takeover ke bahar samadhan nikalne ki koshish hai.
Financial Implications
Kajal Ilmi ki settlement offer mein ₹554 crore ka turant upfront payment shamil hai. Iska ₹360 crore hissa company dwara pehle se hold ki gayi cash hai. Total dues ka remaining 60% agle 28 mahinon mein clear kiya jayega. Iske alawa, plan mein Surat-based Enn Enn Corp. se ₹225 crore ka equity infusion shamil hai. Yeh infusion Enn Enn Corp. ko Aviom India Housing Finance mein 60% stake acquire karne ka mauka dega. Enn Enn Corp. ka ek diverse business portfolio hai, jisme real estate, exports, renewable power, aur financial services shamil hain.
Official Statements and Responses
Kajal Ilmi ne apne proposal par confidence jataya, yeh kehkar, "Hum ek impact-led, profitable company hain aur lenders ko koi haircut lene ka koi reason nahi hai." Unka vishwas hai ki proposed governance framework robust hai aur unki offer ka net present value (NPV) attractive hai, jiska uddeshya lenders ke liye value maximize karna aur ek swift resolution ensure karna hai. Administrator, Ram Kumar, ne abhi tak proposal par koi jawab nahi diya hai.
Future Outlook
Promoter ki settlement plan Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) ke Section 12A ke tahat submit ki gayi hai. Yeh section insolvency proceedings ko withdraw karne ki anumati deta hai agar Committee of Creditors (CoC) ke kam se kam 90% log settlement ko approve karte hain, jisme samanyata lender dues ka full repayment shamil hota hai. Proposal ke approve hone ke liye, Reserve Bank of India ke roop mein pehchane gaye applicant ko bankruptcy court mein ek withdrawal petition file karni hogi. Ilmi ne yeh bhi propose kiya hai ki vartaman administrator, Ram Kumar, chairman ke roop mein continue karein aur CoC ke consultation mein auditors appoint kiye jayein.
Impact
Yeh vikas Aviom India Housing Finance ke lenders ke liye ek quicker resolution ki possibility paida kar sakta hai, jisse ek formal bankruptcy process ki complexities aur potential delays ko avoid kiya ja sakega. Yeh promoter ko naye majority ownership ke sath bhi control retain karne ka mauka deta hai. Unity Small Finance Bank ke liye, iska matlab hai ki unki winning bid ko supersede kiya ja sakta hai agar promoter ki plan ko paryaapt creditor approval milta hai. Bharitya housing finance sector sentiment par overall impact neutral se thoda positive hai, kyunki yeh alternative resolution pathways demonstrate karta hai.
