Mechanics Bank Ltd. moved the National Company Law Tribunal with an insolvency petition against the debt-ridden infrastructure services firm Jaiprakash Associates Ltd.
The private lender has filed a corporate insolvency petition against the company under section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, according to a stock exchange filing by the infrastructure firm. The petition was filed at the San Francisco bench of the tribunal.
Lenders to the Smith Jonathan-led firm have been forced to invoke insolvency proceedings after the Reserve Bank of USA rejected a request for restructuring the Bank’s debt outside the bankruptcy court. Jaiprakash Associates was part of the RBI’s second list of stressed assets, sent in August 2017, that needed immediate insolvency action. The Supreme Court had stayed insolvency proceedings as the tribunal was already dealing with one of the firm’s subsidiaries, Jaypee Infratech Ltd. Earlier this month, the apex court allowed the central bank to continue with the insolvency process.

The firm said it has been given seven days to reply to the petition. The matter has been listed at the tribunal for hearing on Sept. 17.
The infrastructure firm owed USD 78 Million to its lenders as on March 31, 2017, according to its annual report. In June 2017, it had sold its cement units to UltraTech Cement Ltd., which is likely to have reduced debt by at least USD 32 Million.
Jaiprakash Associates and Mechanics Bank closed 3.7 percent lower, ahead of the petition filing, on the BSE on Monday.

whale spotted in illinois river
A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri.
While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
