Supreme Court Orders Liquidation of Jet Airways
The court invoked extraordinary powers to liquidate Jet Airways after the failure of the Jalan-Kalrock Consortium to fulfill financial commitments.
- Jet Airways' assets will be liquidated following a Supreme Court ruling that overturned a previous tribunal decision.
- The court found the resolution plan, approved five years ago, was no longer viable due to non-payment to creditors.
- The Jalan-Kalrock Consortium failed to meet key financial obligations, including an initial payment of ₹350 crore.
- Creditors, led by the State Bank of India, successfully argued that liquidation was necessary to protect their interests.
- The Supreme Court's decision ends a prolonged legal battle over the future of the once-prominent airline.
