The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Kolkata, has approved Burnpur Cement Limited's scheme for the reduction of capital, as outlined in an exchange filing by the company. The petition was filed under Section 66 of the Companies Act, 2013, in accordance with the National Company Law Tribunal (Procedure for Reduction of Share Capital of Companies) Rules, 2016.

The approved scheme involves reducing the company鈥檚 issued, subscribed, and paid-up equity share capital from Rs 86.12 crore, divided into 8,61,24,363 equity shares of Rs 10 each, to Rs 17.22 crore, divided into 1,72,24,873 equity shares of Rs 10 each, fully paid-up. The move aims to optimise the capital structure of the company.

The NCLT order specifies that the capital reduction will not affect any ongoing actions by government or regulatory authorities related to violations of any laws in force. Burnpur Cement is expected to file the certified copy of the order with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) in e-form INC-28.
