Zee-Sony Merger Case: After IDBI Bank, now Axis moves NCLAT against Zee

Earlier, IDBI Bank moved the appellate tribunal to challenge the NCLT's approval for Sony-Zee merger.

Axis Finance has approached the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) against the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) order approving the merger of Zee Entertainment Enterprise Ltd (ZEEL) and Sony. The NCLAT has served notice to the company in response to Axis Finance's plea.

The merger of Zee Entertainment and Sony is a significant development in the media and entertainment industry, and it appears that Axis Finance has raised objections related to the merger.

Earlier, IDBI Bank approached the appellate tribunal to challenge the NCLT's approval for Sony-Zee merger. In a disclosure to the stock exchanges, ZEEL on September 6 said the company has been served with an appeal on behalf of IDBI Bank before the NCLAT.
