Jet Airways sells two Boeing 777 Aircraft for ₹568 Crore via e-auction - Corporate & Business - 1 min read Jet Airways sells two Boeing 777 Aircraft for ₹568 Crore via e-auction Jet Airways, under liquidation, sold two Boeing 777 aircraft for ₹568 crore via e-auction, far above reserve prices, signalling strong asset demand and boosting potential creditor recoveries during ongoing liquidation. Jet Airways (India) Ltd, currently under liquidation, has successfully sold two wide-body Boeing 777-300ER aircraft for a combined ₹568.17 crore through an e-auction process, significantly above the reserve price, according to a regulatory filing on Tuesday. The sale was conducted by the airline’s liquidator, Satish Kumar Gupta, following approvals and consultations with the Stakeholders’ Consultation Committee. The aircraft, both based in Delhi, were put up for sale on the insolvency regulator’s e-auction platform BAANKNET in accordance with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Liquidation Process) Regulations, 2016. The first aircraft, bearing registration VT-JET, was sold to Ace Aviation XIV Limited for ₹309.24 crore, nearly 80% higher than its reserve price of ₹171.80 crore. The second aircraft, VT-JEU, fetched ₹258.93 crore against a reserve price of ₹184.95 crore, with Ace Aviation XV Limited emerging as the successful bidder. Together, the two aircraft had a combined reserve price of ₹356.75 crore, underscoring strong bidder interest in aviation assets despite prolonged stress in the airline sector. Industry observers say such recoveries could provide a meaningful boost to creditor payouts in the long-running liquidation process.

NCDRC stays warrant execution against Salman Khan in Rajshree Pan Masala ad case

NCDRC stays warrant execution against Salman Khan in Rajshree Pan Masala ad case - Litigation - 2 min read NCDRC stays warrant execution against Salman Khan in Rajshree Pan Masala ad case The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has halted all actions and cancelled bailable warrants against actor Salman Khan and Rajshree Pan Masala. This follows a complaint about misleading advertisements for 'silver coated elaichi'. The District Commission had issued an ex-parte order and later initiated contempt proceedings. The NCDRC has now admitted Salman Khan's appeal and summoned records from both commissions. The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) has stayed all further proceedings and the execution of bailable warrants issued by the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC), Jaipur-II, in a consumer complaint against actor Salman Khan and Rajshree Pan Masala over alleged misleading advertisements for "silver-coated elaichi." The complaint, filed by advocate Yogendra Singh Badiyal, accused Rajshree Pan Masala and its brand ambassador Salman Khan of deceptively promoting pan masala as a saffron-infused product, claiming the advertisements posed health risks, including cancer. On January 6, 2026, the DCDRC issued an ex-parte interim order under Section 38(8) of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, restraining the misleading advertisements without issuing prior notice to Salman Khan. On January 15, 2026, despite Salman Khan's appearance before the Commission and pending applications, the DCDRC initiated contempt proceedings under Section 72 of the Act, alleging non-compliance and issuing bailable warrants against him. The State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (SCDRC), Rajasthan, confirmed these proceedings through orders dated March 16, 2026, following which Salman Khan filed an appeal before the NCDRC.

MPA Prioritises Crude, Gas and Fertiliser Cargo Amid Strait of Hormuz Concerns

MPA Prioritises Crude, Gas and Fertiliser Cargo Amid Strait of Hormuz Concerns - Corporate & Business - 1 min read MPA Prioritises Crude, Gas and Fertiliser Cargo Amid Strait of Hormuz Concerns Mormugao Port Authority is prioritizing vessels carrying essential commodities like crude oil, LNG, LPG, and fertilizers due to geopolitical concerns in the Middle East. This strategic advisory aims to ensure national energy security and domestic supply continuity by granting priority berthing for critical cargoes. The Mormugao Port Authority (MPA) has issued a strategic advisory to all port users, shipping agents, and stakeholders to prioritise the handling of vessels carrying essential commodities such as crude oil, LNG, LPG, and fertilisers. This move comes in response to a directive from the Ministry of Ports, Shipping & Waterways dated April 7, 2026, which raised concerns over ongoing geopolitical developments in the Middle East. The Ministry has identified that the evolving situation near the Strait of Hormuz could disrupt global maritime supply chains, particularly impacting the movement of energy and agricultural cargoes from the Gulf region. These essential commodities specifically include crude oil, LNG, LPG, and fertilizers. Such priority will be granted based on the recommendations or requests of the relevant Nodal Ministry, provided the measures remain operationally feasible for the port. While the Port Authority continues to require the timely submission of statutory documents, it has signaled a shift toward a more facilitative administrative approach.
