In its order, the Supreme Court had said that any appropriation of any amount from the escrow accounts shall be subject to further orders of the NCLAT or any other competent legal authority according to the said order, which would be duly complied with by IL&FS.
NCLAT has allowed this disbursal under the interim distribution framework on a pro-rata basis approved by the IL&FS board. This project was earlier kept out from the list of other companies that were approved under the interim distribution framework in the tribunal’s May 31 order. After hearing Haryana government and the lending consortium in the project, the court has allowed ILFS to distribute this compensation to lenders under this revised distribution framework. (MSN)
