The Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Chandigarh Bench, has given its approval for the scheme of merger between Inox Wind Energy Ltd (IWEL) and Inox Wind Ltd (IWL). The order, dated June 10, 2025, will see IWEL amalgamated into IWL, a move aimed at simplifying and streamlining the wind business vertical of the INOX Gujarat Fluorochemicals Limited (INOXGFL) Group and enhancing overall operational efficiencies.
This merger is expected to significantly strengthen IWL's financial position by reducing its liabilities by approximately ₹2,050 crores. The INOXGFL Group, a prominent business group in India's energy transition sector, highlighted several key benefits of this consolidation. These include a stronger and more financially robust merged balance sheet, synergies leading to improved efficiencies through cost savings, better resource utilisation, elimination of redundant functions, and streamlined regulatory compliance.
The simplified business structure will remove the holding company arrangement, with INOXGFL Group promoters now holding a direct stake in Inox Wind. This overall consolidation of businesses and the resulting financial and operational synergies are anticipated to enhance value for various stakeholders.
As part of the merger, shareholders of IWEL will receive 632 equity shares of face value of ₹10 each of IWL for every 10 equity shares of face value of ₹10 each of IWEL. The Record Date for this share allotment is yet to be determined, and the shares are expected to be credited to IWEL shareholders within 1 to 1.5 months, subject to regulatory processes and clearances.
On this landmark occasion, Mr. Devansh Jain, Executive Director, INOXGFL Group, said, “We thank the Hon’ble NCLT for approving the scheme of merger of IWEL into IWL. The merger is a significant achievement in the exciting journey of the INOXGFL Group, and brings closure to the last two years of efforts which our team had invested in this process. It is also a milestone for our consolidated wind business, in which over the same period we have been able to deliver a remarkable operational and financial turnaround and establish a strong base for exponential growth over the coming years. We believe that this merger is beneficial for all stakeholders, including the minority shareholders of IWEL, as well as for IWL, since it results in a leaner and more robust balance sheet for the company.
As a Group which is at the forefront of energy transition in India, we continue to achieve new highs every year. In line with the ambitious green targets of the Government of India, led by our Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi ji himself, we continue to expand our operations and footprints across multiple segments in the clean energy space, and are strongly placed to capitalise on the large-scale impending opportunities over the next decade.”
