ARCs earning from SR redemption up 15.8% in FY25 on better recovery
The earnings of Asset Reconstruction Companies (ARCs) from redemption of securities receipts (SRs) grew by 15.8 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) to ₹43,256 crore in the financial year 2024-25 (FY25).
The redemption of SRs, broadly representing recovery, improved substantially as the economy picked up and amount locked up in stressed sectors like power, infrastructure got resolved, according to the Association of ARCs in India.
ARCs had redeemed SRs worth ₹37,364 crore in FY24 and ₹27,356 crore in FY23. SRs are financial instruments issued to qualified buyers as consideration for purchasing distressed assets from banks or financial institutions.
While the redemption of receipts increased in FY25, the SRs issued for bad loans acquired by ARCs declined during the period. They issued SRs amounting ₹37,511 crore in FY25, down from ₹37,864 crore in FY24 and ₹41,406 crore in FY23.
With stable gross non-performing assets (NPAs) of the banking system below 3 per cent, fresh ARC business remained almost stagnant. The pace of issuance of security receipts issued for acquisition of NPAs remained muted. The redemption outpaced acquisition due to improved recovery and collections. For the next year too, the situation is likely to continue, said Hari Hara Mishra, CEO, Association of ARCs in India in a statement.
Also, with the redemption of SRs being higher than fresh SRs issued, the outstanding SRs declined to ₹1.34 trillion in FY25 from ₹1.39 trillion in FY24.
The asset sale & settlement contributed only 1/3rd of recovery, the remaining 2/3rd came through Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), and in-house restructuring and other measures, the association said.
The total dues acquired by ARCs cumulatively rose to ₹16.14 trillion, including those from Stressed Asset Stabilisation Fund amounting to ₹4.22 trillion transferred to an ARC during FY25, it added. The total dues acquired were ₹10.2 trillion at the end of FY24 and ₹8.48 trillion in FY23.

Jaiprakash Associates creditors extend bid deadline by 15 days
Creditors to Manoj Gaur-promoted Jaiprakash Associates Ltd (JAL), led by National Asset Reconstruction Co Ltd ( NARCL ), have decided to extend the timeline for submission of bids by another 15 days from June 9. The decision was taken at the meeting of the committee of creditors (CoC) over the weekend after requests from some bidders for more time to submit their bids. "Some bidders requested for more time and NARCL, which is the largest creditor, has agreed. This will be conveyed to all stakeholders on Monday," said a person familiar with the process, who did not wish to be identified. NARCL did not immediately reply to ET's email seeking comments. The debt-laden holding company of the real estate, cement and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) group, operating mostly in Delhi-National Capital Region, owes creditors a total of ₹57,185 crore. Interested bidders have to submit an earnest money deposit and performance security. Lenders have also sought bank guarantees of ₹8.5 lakh against 100% margin (in the form of a lien marked fixed deposit), to cover for the mining plan for Degarhat Devmaudaldal leased limestone mine of JAL. Media reports said that more than two dozen varied bidders including power and cement companies, alternative asset managers and EPC companies have expressed interest in placing formal bids. They include large companies such as Adani Enterprises , Dalmia Bharat , Vedanta , Patanjali Ayurveda, Naveen Jindal's Jindal Power, GMR Group, Kotak Alternate Asset Managers, Oberoi Realty and Torrent Power. ET could not immediately ascertain the names of the bidders. NARCL is the single largest creditor to the company, having taken over 87% of the ₹57,185 crore debt from banks in January. Acre ARC, with 4% of the debt, and Axis Bank, with 1.60% of the debt, are the other large creditors. JAL is among the largest companies undergoing the corporate resolution process under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. In terms of debt size, the JAL resolution is only dwarfed by the ₹65,000 crore owed by Videocon Industries to its creditors.

Metro project will be built underground: Minister
1 2 Bhubaneswar: Works minister Prithiviraj Harichandan on Sunday announced major infrastructural developments in capital city, including plans for a mega Odisha Mandapam, a 10,000-seater convention centre, and a significant modification to the Metro rail project, which will now be constructed underground instead of the previously planned elevated route. Speaking on the sidelines of a national seminar on 'Recent Advances in Iconic Building Projects', jointly organised by the public works department and the Indian Building Congress (IBC), the minister also announced plans to build disaster-resilient buildings across the state. "The site for the mega convention centre has been identified in Chandrasekharpur, with the initial feasibility study already completed," Harichandan said. Regarding the Metro project modification, he added, "An elevated Metro is not feasible for Bhubaneswar, which prompted us to reconsider its design and opt for an underground concept similar to other Indian cities." The national seminar brought together experts and policymakers from across India to discuss sustainable construction practices. Bijay Chandra Tripathy, chairman of the Odisha chapter of IBC, said that the seminar's outcomes would be submitted to the govt for consideration, adding that they would 'collaborate with the state govt in achieving sustainable construction practices'. Marking a significant milestone, the seminar is the first national-level IBC event in Bhubaneswar in two decades. Manoranjan Mishra, former engineer in-chief of the works department and IBC council member, emphasised that the event explored innovative solutions for future infrastructure development. P K Parhi, vice-chairman of IBC's Odisha chapter, noted the overwhelming response from various sectors, including govt bodies, planning authorities, and academic institutions. "After so long, the city has witnessed the national seminar of IBC. It will be important since Bhubaneswar is currently making strides in infrastructure development," he said.
