Essar Steel auction: NCLAT amends order to add Darius Khambata as counsel Noor Arora
The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) on Monday amended its order on the Essar Steel, passed by it on September 7, to add the name of senior counsel Darius Khambata, which was left out. Khambata had represented Resolution Professional of the debt-ridden firm Essar Steel in this matter before the appellate tribunal and his name was missing in the final order. Tribunal's direction came after an application was moved to include his name. In its judgement, passed earlier this month, NCLAT had ruled that Numetal's Rs 370 billion second-round bid for Essar Steel is valid, but asked rival bidder ArcelorMittal to clear Rs 70 billion dues of its previously associated firms within three days to qualify for the acquisition.
