Note: The above is net of Rs.10,189 crore already transferred to UltraTech Cement Limited on sale of 17.2 MTPA cement plants as referred to above and excludes debt of Rs.1000 crore yet to be paid to Lenders through redemption of Redeemable Preference Shares (RPS) Series-A issued by UTCL related to JP Super Cement Plant in U.P. which were not redeemed and the matter is pending before duly constituted Arbitral Tribunal. Post approval of DRP by all the Lenders, the Master Restructuring Agreement (MRA) dated 31st October 2017 was signed by all the Lenders on various dates, the last being 13th December 2017, for the sustainable debt approved under DRP carrying interest @9.5% p.a. (linked with 1 year MCLR with annual reset) and repayable over a period of 7 years to 20 years including moratorium period depending on the nature of loan liability. The restructuring got stalled, inter-alia, due to initiation of CIRP of Company''s subsidiary, JIL pending litigation at Hon''ble Supreme Court of India in the matter of Company''s subsidiary, Jaypee Infratech Limited. The restructuring is still underway and yet to be completed.
In the said matter, the Company was made to deposit a sum of Rs.750 crores with the Hon''ble Supreme Court of India. The Hon''ble Supreme Court of India vide its Order dated 24th March, 2021 directed that the said sum of Rs.750 crores is the asset of the Company, but before the aforesaid sum is remitted back to the Company, a reconciliation of accounts between JIL and the Company would be necessary which shall be carried out under the supervision of the Principal Bench, NCLT, Delhi. After several hearings before the NCLT, New Delhi, an order dated 7th March, 2023 was passed but due to certain inherent deficiencies in the said order, an appeal was filed before the NCLAT and the matter is pending before the said Appellate Tribunal.
The Directors wish to inform that an application under Section 7 of IBC, 2016 was filed by ICICI Bank Limited (the lender) against the Company before the NCLT, Allahabad. It was pleaded by the Company before the NCLT, Allahabad that once the SOA, as referred to above, is passed, the default of the Company would be cured. The matter regarding the said
application u/s 7 of IBC, 2016 and SOA is being heard by the Tribunal simultaneously.
It needs to be added that Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) vide its communication dated 12th February, 2020 cancelled the land admeasuring 1085 hectares (core/non-core area) located at Special Development Zone (SDZ), Sector-25, Sports City, Greater Noida, allotted to the Company, inter-alia, of alleged non-payment of dues for which an agreement for deferment of instalments had already been arrived at between the parties. A part of the said parcel of the land is subject matter of SOA. The Company has challenged the said Order passed by the YEIDA before the Hon''ble Allahabad High Court and has also deposited an amount as per directions in Interim, by the Hon''ble High Court. The matter is pending for final hearing.
Once the Scheme is sanctioned by NCLT, the Order so passed shall be filed with ROC and the said Scheme would become effective w.e.f. 1st July 2017 (the Appointed Date).

8.0 DIVERSIFICATION
A. DEVELOPMENT OF COAL BLOCKS IN MADHYA PRADESH

--Amelia (North) (by Madhya Pradesh Jaypee Minerals Limited),
--Dongri Tal-II (by MP Jaypee Coal Limited), and
--Mandla (South) (by MP Jaypee Coal Fields Limited).
These coal blocks had been allocated to Madhya Pradesh State Mining Corporation Ltd. (MPSMCL), with an identical shareholding ratio of 51:49 between MPSMCL and JAL.
Coal mined from Amelia (North) and Dongri Tal-II Mines was for supply to the 2 x 660 MW Super Critical Thermal Power Plant at Nigrie, (M.P.) set up by Jaiprakash Power Ventures Limited (JPVL), a subsidiary of JAL (now an Associate Company w.e.f. 18.02.2017).
Mandla (North) Coal Block owned by JAL was for captive use of Coal for Cement Plants and CPPs.
After developing Amelia (North) Coal Block, the JVC namely Madhya Pradesh Jaypee Minerals Limited (MPJML) had started supply of Coal to Jaypee Nigrie Super Thermal Power Plant (JNSTPP). The remaining three Coal Blocks had also achieved substantial progress in developing the mines and obtaining clearances/ approvals.
Consequent to Supreme Court verdict dated 24.09.2014, allocation of 204 coal blocks including Amelia (North), Dongrital-II, & Mandla South allotted to MPSMCL and Mandla North to JAL were cancelled.
Ministry of Coal decided to reallocate the cancelled coal blocks through e-auction/ allocation. Amelia (North) and Mandla North coal blocks which were categorized as schedule-II (Mines producing coal or about to produce) were put for e-auction in first tranche wherein JPVL and JAL were declared successful for above blocks respectively. Subsequently JCCL also won Mandla South and Majra coal mines in the auction held for coal blocks in Schedule-III and tranche-III respectively.

Your Company enjoyed respectable track record of compliance of Public Deposit rules prescribed by Government of India from time to time. As on 1st April 2014, the Company had outstanding fixed deposits and interest payable thereon aggregating Rs.2,722.53 Crores, which were to be repaid over a period of three years from the date of their respective acceptance. Consequent to the amendment of the Fixed Deposit provisions in the new Companies Act, 2013, the Company decided to stop accepting fresh deposits or renewing the existing deposits. Under the new provisions, the outstanding Deposits as on 31.03.2014 were stipulated to the repaid within one year i.e. by 31.03.2015. Since the amount raised by the Company stood deployed in its business, it was not feasible to repay such a huge amount within the said period. Accordingly, the Company approached Honâble Company Law Board (CLB) for extension of time for repayment of outstanding Fixed Deposits. Seeing the satisfactory progress of repayment of Fixed deposits to depositors, Honâble CLB had from time to time extended the time for such repayment, finally till 30th June 2016.
The Government of India constituted National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) which came into existence with effect from 1st June 2016. The powers of CLB were transferred to NCLT. On acquiring the jurisdictional authority over the matter, Honâble NCLT vide its Order dated 30th May 2017 had further extended the time upto 30th June 2017 for repayment of outstanding deposits and interest thereon. Thus, all through, the Company, has been compliant with the orders of the Honâble CLB/NCLT.
During the period from 1st April 2014 to 31st March 2017, the Company had settled/repaid FDs aggregating Rs.1,442.91 Crores (including interest payable thereon). As on 31st March 2017, an aggregate amount of Rs.1,279.62 Crores was payable towards repayment of deposits and interest thereon.
The payment of outstanding amount was finally made out of the sale consideration of identified cement plants of the Company in the 1st week of July 2017. The year wise status is as under:

In fact, voting in favour of resolution was over 90%. Since the DRP has been approved by the IEC & the JLF, it has now become binding on all the lenders of the Company. Approval from major lenders has been received and from others, the same is under process.
With the formation of Real Estate SPV and transfer of debt to such SPV, JAL''s obligations with respect to such debt and related liabilities would stand extinguished.

Satna continued to function satisfactorily with 100% utilization of
installed capacity. However, Bhilai grinding unit''s capacity
utilization remained at sub-optimal level due to lesser availability of
slag from Bhilai Steel Plant.

Company has achieved a gross turnover of Rs. 454 crore, as against
Rs.1116 crore during the Financial Year 2011-12 which comprised a
period of 18 months. The working results of BJCL for the year under
report (6 months) resulted in an operating profit of Rs. 55.46 crore as

availability of slag from Bokaro Steel Plant. Slag supply position,
however, gradually started improving in the last quarter of the year
and the unit achieved 85% capacity utilization in the month of March
2013. Considering the recent trend of supply, BOJCL is hopeful that
during 2013-14 slag availability is likely to improve which would
enable the grinding unit to achieve a higher capacity utilisation.
Despite lower capacity utilization, the Company has achieved a gross
turnover of Rs. 627.36 crores during the year under report, backed by a
strong brand image and resultant higher realization for its product.
