Prime Focus Limited Complies with NCLAT Deposit Direction of ₹353.8 Crore
Prime Focus Limited has complied with the NCLAT's directive to deposit ₹353.8 crore by May 20, 2026. This follows a stay on a previous NCLAT order, ensuring the Interim Resolution Professional does not take further steps.
The deposit of a substantial amount (₹353.8 crore) indicates a significant ongoing legal matter that could have material implications for the company's financial health and operational status. Compliance is a necessary step, but the underlying litigation still poses a risk.
The announcement is a compliance update regarding a legal proceeding. While complying with a court order is positive in itself, it pertains to an ongoing litigation and does not represent a significant positive development for the company's business operations.
Prime Focus Limited has informed the stock exchanges about its compliance with a deposit direction issued by the Hon’ble National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) in New Delhi. This update pertains to appellate proceedings in Comp. App. (AT) (Ins.) No. 850 of 2026.
Previously, on May 12, 2026, the company had disclosed that the NCLAT had stayed an order dated May 6, 2026, passed by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLAT), Mumbai Bench. The NCLAT had further directed that the Interim Resolution Professional should not proceed with the impugned order and that a sum of ₹353,79,74,505 (Rupees Three Hundred Fifty-Three Crores Seventy-Nine Lakhs Seventy-Four Thousand Five Hundred and Five) be deposited in an interest-bearing account with the Registrar, NCLAT, New Delhi, by May 20, 2026.
The company wishes to announce that this deposit direction has been fulfilled before the stipulated due date as per the NCLAT Order.
