The Allahabad bench of NCLT on September 10th, 2018 has asked the ICICI Bank to serve notice to its corporate debtor Jaiprakash Associates within three days and directed the Jaypee Group to file a reply by September 17, 2018.

The NCLT has directed to list the matter for next hearing on September 17th, 2018.
If NCLT allows the plea of the ICICI Bank, then this will be the second company of the Jaypee Group to be facing insolvency.
