NCLT Invalidates JLS Realty Land Transfer and Rs 525 Crore Guarantee in Mumbai Dispute
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) invalidated multiple transactions involving JLS Realty Pvt Ltd, including the transfer of redevelopment land in Mumbai to Spenta Suncity and a Rs 525 crore mortgage and corporate guarantee linked to IIFL financing. The tribunal also reversed disputed share transfers, invalidated certain director appointments, and ordered restoration of the land. The ruling, following five years of litigation, found the transactions demonstrated deliberate design and oppression, lacking fair dealing. The dispute centers on the Shankarwadi slum-redevelopment project in Jogeshwari East, Mumbai.
