India NCLT Insolvency Resolution Filings — March 01, 2026
Across 11 filings in the India Corporate Insolvency & NCLT stream, a key theme emerges in the defence sector with Punj Lloyd Ltd (in liquidation) advancing resolution via Business Transfer Agreement (BTA) and Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) with Adani subsidiaries on Feb 28, 2026, post NCLT order, signaling asset monetization in insolvency proceedings. Auto sector dominates with robust Feb 2026 sales/production: TVS Motor +31% YoY total units (529k), Tata Motors +32% YoY CVs (43k units), M&M +18% YoY autos (97k) and +34% YoY tractors (34k), Maruti +7.3% YoY sales (214k) but domestic passengers -9.1% YoY. Adani consolidates defence via acquisitions from Punj Lloyd, boosting ADSTL stake in Air Works to 99.98%. Neutral ONGC management changes (two senior exits Mar 1, 2026) lack materiality. Airtel-Google RCS collab addresses spam gaps. Portfolio trends show auto UV/exports/EVs/trucks outperforming (avg +25-60% YoY), while compact/passenger segments lag (-2-9% YoY); insolvency resolutions create M&A opportunities amid strong industrial demand.
