Evonith Steel (the Company) has successfully
completed the acquisition of Indrajit Power Pvt. Ltd. (IPPL) in Wardha,
Maharashtra for INR 232-cr through Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC)
process. The Company was approved as the Successful Resolution Applicant (SRA)
by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) on 20th April, 2026 and has
now completed the acquisition.
IPPL is an 85 MW coal-based power producer which has
potential to supply power requirements of Evonith Steel, including its
immediate growth plans. This strategic acquisition for the Company ensures
self-dependence on energy sources to a large extent at competitive cost and
will provide energy security to the company to meet its current energy
requirements, including the completion of the expansion phase of the Company.
IPPL is located adjacent to the Evonith Steel plant in Wardha.
“Steel plants are energy-intensive units and expanding
our self-reliance on power sources will help ensure continuous and
uninterrupted supply for our operations as we continue on our growth journey.
We have plans to expand our production capacities further, and this acquisition
is a critical step to ensure that our power requirements are met at competitive
costs,” said Jai Saraf, Chairman, Evonith Steel.
