20% Curcit Locked

surged nearly 18% on July 7 after its AGM boosted investor sentiment, further fueled by reports that the Adani Group is leading the race to acquire its parent company, Jaiprakash Associates (JAL), through insolvency proceedings. JAL defaulted on over ₹57,000 crore in loans and entered the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) in 2024. Adani's ₹14,000 crore bid is reportedly the highest among five contenders, including Vedanta and Dalmia Bharat. Meanwhile, Jaiprakash Associates stock hit the 5% upper circuit at ₹3.19 amid heavy volumes, though it has dropped over 45% in 2025 so far. JP Power shares also saw unusually high trading volumes, up nearly 7x their 10-day average, and have surged over 1,000% in five years. JAL owns a 24% stake in JP Power and has valuable real estate assets like Jaypee Greens and Sports City in Noida. The resolution process is being overseen by major lenders like SBI, ICICI Bank, and LIC.
