NSEL traders vote in favour of one time settlement
In a significant development towards resolving the prolonged National Spot Exchange Ltd (NSEL) crisis, approximately 92% of affected traders have approved a one-time settlement scheme. This scheme, proposed by the NSEL Investors Forum (NIF) and backed by 63 Moons Technologies—the parent company of NSEL—entails a payout of ₹1,950 crore to around 5,700 investors. The settlement offers about 42% of the outstanding dues, providing a long-awaited resolution for traders who have been awaiting reimbursement since the exchange's collapse in 2013 due to payment defaults by 24 entities .
Under the terms of the agreement, investors will assign their claims against defaulters to 63 Moons, which will oversee the recovery process. To ensure transparency, an escrow agent and monitoring authority will be appointed to supervise the disbursement of funds. The settlement plan has been submitted to the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) for approval, marking a pivotal step towards concluding one of India's most significant financial disputes in the commodities trading sector .
