JSW Energy, GE Power India – NCLT convened meetings for scheme of arrangement
GE Power India Limited, a large-cap power equipment and services company, is being demerged and merged into JSW Energy Limited (a major renewable and thermal energy utility). The scheme requires separate NCLT-convened meetings for equity shareholders and unsecured creditors of both companies. The transaction is being structured under Sections 230–232 of the Companies Act, 2013, which govern schemes of arrangement, as opposed to a conventional merger or acquisition. NCLT approval is a central regulatory gate; subsequent shareholder and creditor voting, followed by NCLT order and CCI clearance, are likely next steps.
Why it mattersThe structure uses a scheme of arrangement (not an open-market acquisition), requiring creditor approval at the NCLT stage-a gate that has historically invited NCLT scrutiny on fairness and dissenting shareholder protections; partners must track the NCLT order carefully for minority safeguards and the treatment of unsecured claims against GE Power India.
