The National Company Law Tribunal, Ahmedabad bench has approved a resolution plan submitted by Triton Electric Vehicle LLC last month.
“Triton Electric Vehicle LLC has emerged as the successful bidder for plant and machinery, land and building etc of AMW Motors for Rs 210 crore. The resolution plan has been approved by NCLT, Ahmedabad bench on December 21, 2022,” said the source.
