NCLAT has allowed a fresh bidding process for Raigarh Champa Rail Infra, enabling JSW Energy to participate. JSW earlier acquired KSK Mahanadi for Rs. 16,084 crore.
JSW Energy has entered the race to acquire Raigarh Champa Rail Infrastructure Ltd (RCRIPL), following the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal's (NCLAT) decision to permit a fresh bidding process. The ruling overturns an earlier April 3 order from the Hyderabad bench of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), which had denied the lenders' request to invite new bids.
The appellate decision offers a fresh opportunity for JSW Energy to expand its infrastructure footprint, particularly after its acquisition of the KSK Mahanadi 3,600 MW thermal power plant in March 2025 for Rs. 16,084 crore.

The NCLAT order, passed on 19 June 2025 by a two-member bench, permits the Resolution Professional (RP) to reissue Form G under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). This invitation for Expression of Interest opens the door for all eligible participants, not limited to JSW Energy, increasing the competitive landscape.
The Committee of Creditors (CoC) had earlier received 100 per cent approval for Medha Servo Drives’ bid. However, the CoC later proposed a fresh challenge mechanism to explore improved financial outcomes.
Company Name | Current Status in Process | Industry Focus |
JSW Energy | Newly allowed to bid | Power & Infrastructure |
Adani Power | Existing bidder | Power Generation |
Jindal Power | Existing bidder | Energy & Mining |
Medha Servo Drives | Previous top bidder | Rail & Engineering |
Vedanta | Existing bidder | Mining & Resources |
The inclusion of JSW Energy in the fresh bidding round adds momentum to the resolution of RCRIPL. The increased competition is expected to drive higher bid values, benefiting the creditors. For JSW Energy, this move aligns with its strategy to build synergies around recently acquired assets.
With its prior success in acquiring KSK Mahanadi, participation in the RCRIPL bidding could position the company to gain operational control of associated infrastructure. The announcement is likely to generate attention in the market, potentially influencing JSW Energy share price in the near term.
As the bidding progresses, investor interest will remain high, especially with multiple industry majors in the fray. Developments around this acquisition process may continue to impact JSW Energy share price and its standing in the energy and infrastructure segment.
