Supreme Court to hear insolvency plea against Zee promoters, issues notices

The Supreme Court has issued notices to two promoter companies of Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd upon the plea filed by IDBI Trusteeship Services for insolvency proceedings. IDBI had challenged a previous order rejecting their plea to initiate insolvency proceedings against Cyquator Media Services and Direct Media Distribution Ventures. The apex court has granted the two promoter companies four weeks to respond. This case originates from 2015 when Essel Infraprojects proposed the sale of 425 non-convertible debentures, with IDBI acting as the debenture trustee.
