NCLT Allows Demerger Scheme: Jubilant Agri and Consumer Products Limited Initiates Corporate Restructuring
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) granted approval for a proposed Scheme of Arrangement concerning the demerger between JUBILANT AGRI AND CONSUMER PRODUCTS LIMITED and JUBILANT AGRI SOLUTIONS LIMITED. The order, pronounced on July 08, 2026, outlines specific directions regarding subsequent shareholder and creditor meetings.The NCLT directed that the company (JACPL) must convene meetings for its Equity Shareholders and Unsecured Creditors. Significantly, the Tribunal dispensed with the requirement to hold a meeting of Secured Creditors of JACPL. Furthermore, the order stipulated the dispensation of meetings for all shareholders and creditors—both secured and unsecured—of JUBILANT AGRI SOLUTIONS LIMITED (JASL).
The Scheme involves segregating and transferring the Agri Business division from JUBILANT AGRI AND CONSUMER PRODUCTS LIMITED into JUBILANT AGRI SOLUTIONS LIMITED on a going concern basis. This restructuring is intended to create focused management structures, enable financial autonomy, and unlock value for shareholders in both entities.
JACPL is currently engaged in manufacturing performance polymers, chemicals, and agri-products. Meanwhile, JASL was incorporated with the objective of manufacturing, marketing, and trading agricultural products, including fertilizers and chemicals. The demerger facilitates specialized focus on the rapidly transforming agriculture sector in India.
The approved arrangement specifies a Share Entitlement Ratio of one fully paid up equity share of the Resulting Company (JASL) for every one fully paid up equity share held in the Demerged Company (JACPL), with both shares having a face value of INR 10/- each.
