Key Questions Answered

The Mumbai bench of the NCLT issued an order on September 24, 2026, directing the sending of notices and further proceedings regarding the scheme to merge CIE Aluminium Casting India into its parent company, though it is not a final approval order yet.

No, existing shareholders will not receive any new shares because the subsidiary is already a wholly-owned company, and the subsidiary's paid-up share capital will be canceled without changing the parent company's capital structure.

The merger aims to better manage production, sales, and operations, offer a wider range of parts, improve factory capacity utilization, reduce repetitive tasks, and cut costs to help secure new auto orders.
