Reliance Power Subsidiary Faces Insolvency Plea Over $165.41M Debt
Reliance Power Limited's subsidiary, Samalkot Power Limited, is facing an insolvency application filed by US Exim Bank over an alleged debt of US$ 165.41 million (approx. ₹1377 crore). The subsidiary had previously challenged the debt's validity in the London Court of International Arbitration. Reliance Power plans to contest the application.
An insolvency resolution process can have significant financial and operational implications for the company and its subsidiaries, potentially impacting its ability to raise further debt or equity and affecting its overall market standing.
The company is facing an insolvency application from a creditor due to a subsidiary's alleged debt default, which is a negative development.
Reliance Power Limited has disclosed that the Export Import Bank of the United States (US Exim) has filed an application under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC). This application is against the company, alleging a default on debt amounting to US$ 165.41 million (approximately ₹1377 crore) by its subsidiary, Samalkot Power Limited (SPL), which is guaranteed by Reliance Power.
This development follows a previous disclosure on July 01, 2025, indicating that the matter is sub judice. SPL had filed an application on June 29, 2025, before the London Court of International Arbitration against US Exim and Citibank N.A. (Facility Agent). SPL's contention is that the debt is not due and is pending adjudication. Reliance Power has been advised that the current application by US Exim is not legally tenable and intends to contest it vigorously. The company stated it will take all appropriate steps, as legally advised, to protect its interests in this matter.
