NCLT Admits Pen India's Insolvency Petition Against Reliance Entertainment Studios
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Mumbai admitted Pen India's insolvency petition against Reliance Entertainment Studios over a default of ₹11.94 crore related to a ₹20 crore security deposit agreement for the film 'Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha.' The tribunal classified the transaction as financial debt under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code and initiated the corporate insolvency resolution process, appointing an interim resolution professional. Reliance contested the claim, but the NCLT rejected its objections. Pen India had received partial repayment from Friday Filmworks, with some principal and interest still outstanding.
