Under the provision of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), an approval from the competition watchdog is a key requirement for submission of resolution plan to participate in the bidding process. Besides Dalmia Bharat, several other players that have shown their interest to acquire the debt ridden JAL, which operates from cement to real estate, hospitality to fertiliser plant. Players as billionaire Gautam Adani-led Adani Enterprises, Vedanta Group, Jindal Power, and PNC Infratech have also approached CCI to seek its nod for submission of their respective resolution plan to the lender's body Committee of Creditors (CoC). A Supreme Court's directive mandates obtaining CCI approval before the committee of creditors can vote on any resolution plan that qualifies as a combination under the Competition Act.

"Commission approves proposed acquisition of Jaiprakash Associates Ltd by Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd," CCI said in a post on X. A similar combination notice has also been filed with the CCI by the Adani Group as part of the same insolvency process. JAL was admitted into the CIRP through the National Company Law Tribunal, Allahabad Bench, order dated June 3, 2024. It was taken to insolvency proceedings after the conglomerate defaulted on the payment of loans. Creditors are claiming a staggering Rs 57,185 crore. The National Asset Reconstruction Company Ltd (NARCL) leads the list of claimants after acquiring the stressed JAL loans from a consortium of lenders headed by the State Bank of India. JAL has major real estate projects like Jaypee Greens in Greater Noida, a part of Jaypee Greens Wishtown in Noida (both on the outskirts of the national capital), and the Jaypee International Sports City, strategically located near the upcoming Jewar International Airport. It also has three commercial/industrial office spaces in Delhi-NCR, while its hotel division has five properties in Delhi-NCR, Mussoorie, and Agra. JAL has four cement plants in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, and a few leased limestone mines in Madhya Pradesh. The cement plants, however, are non-operational.

Adani Group denies report of battery tie-up with China's BYD, Welion
The Adani Group on Monday clarified that it was not in talks with Chinese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer BYD and battery maker Beijing Welion New Energy Technology for a potential collaboration in India. The statement came after Bloomberg, citing unnamed sources, reported that the Gautam Adani-led conglomerate was exploring a partnership with BYD to manufacture batteries in India as part of its clean energy expansion. An Adani Group spokesperson said: 'We categorically deny Bloomberg's report on 4 Aug 2025 suggesting a tie-up between the Adani Group and Chinese companies BYD and Beijing Welion New Energy Technology. This report is baseless, inaccurate and misleading." "The Adani Group is not exploring any form of collaboration with BYD for battery manufacturing in India. Similarly, we are not engaged in any discussions with Beijing Welion New Energy Technology for a partnership of any kind," the statement added. The Bloomberg report claimed that Adani was personally involved in the discussions, which it said had taken place as recently as last week. The report further claimed that any agreement would likely be routed through BYD's subsidiaries located in other countries, rather than its headquarters in Shenzhen, due to diplomatic tensions between India and China. The Adani Group is one of India's largest conglomerates with diversified interests across ports, power, renewable energy, airports, mining, data centres, and FMCG. While the Adani Group is not directly involved in the automobile sector now, it has shown interest in the electric mobility ecosystem through EV charging infrastructure and green hydrogen. In April 2024, Adani TotalEnergies E-Mobility Limited, a joint venture of Adani Group and French major TotalEnergies, announced that it was establishing EV charging networks across India, including agreements with Mahindra & Mahindra and MG Motor India to install DC charging points at dealerships and build large super-charging hubs. Shares of Adani Enterprises were trading at ₹2,369.35 apiece at 2.09 pm on the BSE on Monday.
