Subsequently, on May 22, 2024, Mr. Sethia was confirmed as the Resolution Professional by the Committee of Creditors.

Receipt of Resolution Plans: In accordance with the provisions of SEBI’s Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements (LODR) Regulations, Morarjee Textiles Limited disclosed the receipt of three resolution plans from prospective resolution applicants. These plans were submitted on August 27, 2024, and form a crucial part of the ongoing corporate insolvency process.

The disclosure of these resolution plans is in compliance with Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. This regulation ensures transparency in corporate events that may significantly affect the company’s operations or financial standing. By notifying the stock exchanges, Morarjee Textiles is upholding its commitment to transparency and regulatory adherence.
