The resolution of the Essar Steel case in NCLT is facing litigation due to a fight between operational creditors and financial creditors.
Laxmi Mittal had already given 44000 cr to NCLT for buying stakes in the company. However, financial creditors ( like a bank) want more pie of share, and on the other hand, operational creditors want more pie of share.
Now the case is pending in the Supreme court, as to who will get how much share?
This unnecessary litigation has dragged the case too far. The sole purpose of NCLT is defeating here. In spite of finding the right creditor, the case is still lingering in court.
The Govt. should issue some guidelines to share the percentage between Operational creditors and Financial Creditors, once the case is settled in NCLT, else such litigation will crop in the future as well.
Did minority shareholders get anything after NCLT resolution?
1. The NCLT proceedings are inclined more towards creditors rather than minority shareholders.
2. Mostly the acquirer tries to delist the company. As per SEBI regulations, the acquirer can delist company without going for a reverse book building process and approval of minority shareholders. Under the reverse book-building process, a fair value of the share is determined and the acquirer pays the same. However, in normal listing they give peanuts.
For instance, consider the delisting case of Electrosteel Steels which was acquired by Vedanta Group. The company offered a delisting price of only 19 paise per share while the Electrosteel shares were trading at around Rs 26 in the stock exchange platform at the time of announcement. Similarly, in the case of Assam Company, the acquirer BRS Ventures has offered to pay only 10 paise per share to public shareholders even as the stock was trading at around Rs 5 at the time of announcement.
So we can conclude that hardly we see minority shareholders getting anything in the deal.
The way IBC is designed that it protects the promoters, their account & finance team and their auditors. Normally, these people would know the company’s state well in advance but they keep burning the investor’s money. Majority shareholders too can arm-twist and benefit with insider information. However, the minority shareholder are the worst of the lot. They are mis-informed by news channels and analysts. Finally, they end up loosing in stocks.
Most of the time promoters will safely takeout their investments well in advance using different ways which they skip any investigation by use of power and money.
The honourable SC and IBC should recognise this fact and should do proper justice to the minority shareholders. They should be issued equivalent shareholding in the acquirer’s company or acquired company.
Satyam was handled very well and the minority shareholder had not lost, specially long term investors.
Oneway is to file PIL jointly representing all minority shareholders.

What is the Current Price of Essar Steel Unlisted Share, if I want to Buy Essar Steel what is the Procedure
https://www.essar.com/essar-global-repays-all-debt-to-indian-and-foreign-lenders/
State Bank of India has put on sale its total loans to Essar Steel Ltd. worth Rs 15,431 crore, as per information on its auction website. The sale is open for asset reconstruction companies, non-banking finance companies, banks and financial institutions.
The minimum reserve price for the loans has been set at Rs 9,587 crore and the bank has disclosed that as per the ArcelorMittal resolution plan, approved by Essar Steel’s committee of creditors, the minimum recovery amount on these loans is Rs 11,313 crore.
The reserve price has been computed using an 18 percent discount on the minimum recovery amount from the ArcelorMittal plan and pricing in a one-year period for the deal to close, according to the notification put up by India’s largest lender. The bank has also put in a clawback option, where if the resolution happens in less than a year, the discount could be reduced and the entity buying these loans would have to pay more to SBI.
SBI has not discussed this move with any of the other banks in the case, a banker to Essar Steel told BloombergQuint. It is possible that SBI wanted to close this case at the earliest and report higher recoveries in the January-March quarter, this lender said on conditions of anonymity. The Essar Steel insolvency case has seen considerable delays, even after the committee of creditors have approved the ArcelorMittal bid.
The list of financial creditors put up by Essar Steel’s resolution professional in January 2018 shows that SBI is the largest lender to the company, with claims worth Rs 13,310 crore to the account. Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company Ltd. is the second largest lender with claims worth Rs 5,352 crore admitted.
