The company noted that the transactions are part of the NCLT-approved resolution plan for Jaiprakash Associates Ltd, under which Adani Enterprises Ltd is the resolution applicant, and Adani Power is acting as one of the implementing entities.

Adani Power had earlier indicated its interest in participating in the resolution process and said the latest agreements formalise the asset acquisition under the approved framework.

The deals will be completed in cash and are expected to be concluded on the â??effective dateâ?? defined under the resolution plan, which is linked to the implementation timeline following regulatory approvals, according to the exchange filing.

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) had cleared the transaction in August 2025, while the NCLTâ??s Allahabad Bench approved the resolution plan in March 2026.

The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) later upheld the order in May 2026.
