The latest update is out from Punj Lloyd Ltd. ( (IN:PUNJLLOYD) ).

Punj Lloyd Ltd has moved a step closer to revival under new ownership, with the liquidator executing a sale certificate that transfers the company as a going concern to Adani Infra (India) Ltd, the successful bidder in its liquidation process approved by the National Company Law Tribunal. As part of the transition, Adani Infra has proposed three additional directors—Vipin Goel, Kattunga Srinivasa Rao and Rajeev Pal—whose appointments have been cleared by the liquidator under powers vested by the insolvency code.

Concurrently, the liquidator has formally recorded the discharge of the suspended board led by Atul Punj, marking a significant governance reset for the debt-laden engineering contractor. The shift in control and board composition is expected to reshape Punj Lloyd’s strategic direction, potentially stabilising operations and offering greater clarity to creditors and other stakeholders following a prolonged insolvency process.
