NCLT has approved a resolution plan allowing Zee founder Subhash Chandra to pay about ₹6.5 crore against ₹22,006.57 crore in admitted claims in insolvency case. The 99.97% haircut has sparked controversy, but the claims relate to his role as a personal guarantor, not personal borrowing. Creditors can retain recovery rights against the principal borrowing companies.
