Adani Goodhomes, a subsidiary of Adani Infrastructure and Developers Pvt. Ltd and part of the Adani Group, has offered around ₹76 crore to Radius Estates' creditors, who have outstanding loans amounting to approximately ₹1,700 crore, resulting in a 96% haircut for the creditors. Additionally, Adani Goodhomes has promised to complete the residential project in Mumbai at no further cost to the homeowners.
The resolution plan had received approval from over two-thirds of the company's creditors before being taken to the NCLT for final approval. Indian insolvency laws mandate that two-thirds of creditors of a bankrupt company must approve a debt resolution process. Nearly all of the 700 homeowners, holding a third of the voting power in the committee of creditors, had supported the bid, along with financial creditors such as HDFC Ltd and Yes Bank.
Radius Estates and Developers Pvt. Ltd. had partnered with MIG (Bandra) Realtors and Builders Pvt. Ltd. to redevelop land in Bandra (East), Mumbai. The project included constructing residential flats for the rehabilitation of members of the Middle-Income Group Co-operative Housing Society and a free-sale component. However, construction halted in January 2020, leading Beacon Trusteeship Ltd. to file a petition under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016, initiating the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against the company.
