NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court has paved the way for amalgamation of Ambuja Cement India Pvt Ltdwith Holcim (India) Pvt Ltd, allowing their joint plea for merger.
A bench of Justice P K Bhasin said both the firms, which belong to Holcim Group of Companies, have fulfilled all legal requirements including holding of the meetings of different stakeholders
"Sanction is hereby granted to the scheme of amalgamation of the Transferor Company (Ambuja Cement) with the transferee company (Holcim)," said Justice Bhasin, allowing for the merger and directing that the Registrar of Companies be intimated with the merger order within four weeks.
"Upon scheme becoming effective and from appointed date the Transferor Company shall stand dissolved without being wound up," Justice Bhasin added.

The court said, "Having regard to the averments made in the petition, the material placed on record, including the Scheme of Amalgamation, and the affidavits filed on behalf of the two Companies seeking sanction of this Court and the no objections given by the Official Liquidator as well as the Regional Director (Northern Region), this Court is satisfied that the prayer made in the petition deserves to be allowed.
"There is no legal impediment to sanction the proposed scheme of amalgamation, which is annexed with the petition."
