Supreme Court Halts BPSL Liquidation, Will Rehear Case
The Supreme Court is taking a second look at its decision about Bhushan Power & Steel Limited (BPSL).
They had previously decided to sell off BPSL, but now they think the first decision was not correct and didn't follow all the rules.
The court is also considering the potential impact on 25,000 jobs.
The case involves a plan from JSW Steel, which was rejected earlier.
The Supreme Court will revisit the case, and the new hearing is scheduled for next Thursday.
Supreme Court recalled its May 2 verdict ordering the liquidation of Bhushan Power & Steel Limited (BPSL).
The initial verdict had rejected a resolution plan from JSW Steel.
The court cited that the previous judgment did not fully consider legal positions and overlooked potential livelihood impacts.
The case will be reheard next Thursday.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta and senior advocate Neeraj Kishan Kaul assailed the initial order.
