ISSUES INVOLVED

 There is no clarity whether Fast Track Merger will be effective prior to NCLT

become operational or not.

  If CG transfer the Scheme to NCLT then, it will fall under Normal merger and

once again entire processes have to be followed as per NCLT order.

  Scheme is to be approved by shareholders holding 9/10th value of shares

capital .

 Scheme is to be approved by creditors having majority in no. and holding

90% value.
