The full amount of consideration has been duly received and the share transfer to the purchaser has been completed.
IWSPL, classified as a "Green Company", has no outstanding debt.
The divestment of IWSPL has resulted in a consideration of Rs 60.56 million to IL&FS Energy that will be kept in an Escrow Account for its lenders.
IWPSL has over 40 employees and is the first company to go out of IL&FS Group with employees.
The Resolution Framework for IL&Fs Group was approved by NCLAT on March 12. The proposed resolution, with options of over 300 subsidiaries of IL&FS Group, include Sale of companies, restructuring, recovery and winding down through a process overseen by Justice Jain and NCLT.
