India’s National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) admitted BGR Energy Systems Ltd. into corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) following a petition by its operational creditor.
The Amaravti bench of the NCLT passed the CIRP order against the Chennai-based company on 3 April, BGR Energy said in a stock exchange announcement. The development came after RDC Concrete India Private Ltd. sought action against the company, claiming a default of around 7.20 crore rupees ($863,806).
The NCLT bench, comprising Judicial Member Rajeev Bhardwaj and Technical Member Sanjay Puri, also appointed P.V.B. Sudhakararao as an interim resolution professional for BGR Energy.
The B.G. Raghupathy family-promoted company carries business in two segments, namely supply of systems & equipment and turnkey engineering project contracting, according to its website.
Meanwhile, Sudhakararao asked BGR Energy’s creditors to submit their claim details with proof by 17 April, according to a public announcement.
The e-mail to be used for correspondence with the IRP is cirpbgr2024@gmail.com, he added.
BGR Energy’s CIRP is likely to be completed by 29 September, according to the announcement.
