Kanakia Group Plans Business Restructure, Seeks NCLT Nod for Real Estate Demerger

Mumbai-based Kanakia Group is reportedly seeking to separate its real estate business from its other ventures in a bid to streamline operations and enhance investor appeal. The group has filed an application with the Mumbai bench of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) to approve the demerger of its realty arms—Kanakia Spaces Realty and Transparent Developers.

A Strategy for Streamlined Growth

As per legal representatives involved, the objective of the restructuring is to create distinct and focused entities. It is believed that by separating the real estate business, both companies will benefit from greater financial and operational flexibility. This would potentially simplify fundraising and make investment opportunities more attractive to a wider pool of capital providers.

NCLT Proceedings Underway

During a recent hearing, a division bench comprising Justice V.G. Bisht and technical member Prabhat Kumar instructed the companies to furnish additional documentation. This includes disclosures related to contingent liabilities, any ongoing legal matters, and detailed information on letters of credit—including sanctioned amounts, utilised sums, and the margin money deposited.

The tribunal is expected to further examine the application once the requested documents are submitted by the parties involved.
