Cosmic CRF Limited has secured a strategic foothold in the northern Indian market after being declared the successful resolution applicant for Cosmic CRF Limited 's acquisition of M/s. Amzen Transportation Industries Private Limited. The Committee of Creditors (CoC) approved the resolution plan, leading the Resolution Professional to issue a Letter of Intent (LOI) dated July 30, 2026. This move enables the group to establish a manufacturing base in the Western/Northern region of India, strengthening its Pan-India footprint for complete railway wagon production. The transaction is subject to final approval by the Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Delhi.
The acquisition falls under the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) governed by Section 30(4) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016, read with Regulation 39(3) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016. Disclosure was made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, and Master Circular No. SEBI/HO/CFD/PoD2/CIR/P/2026/185 dated January 30, 2026. The proposed transaction is not a related party transaction, with no interest held by promoters or group companies in the target entity.
Financial Terms and Structure
The total consideration for the acquisition is set at ₹284.00 Crores. Upon NCLT approval, Cosmic CRF will acquire 100% shareholding in Amzen Transportation Industries Private Limited. The payment structure offers two options for discharging the resolution amount:
| Payment Option | Amount | Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Option I: Total Resolution Amount | ₹284.00 Crores | Over 12 months from NCLT approval |
| Option II: Net Present Value (NPV) | ₹266.5703 Crores | Within 90 days from NCLT approval |
The indicative time period for completing the acquisition is 12 months from the date of payment of consideration. The target entity, formerly known as M/s. Amtek Railcar Industries Private Limited, is incorporated under CIN U35200DL2008PTC180534 with a paid-up share capital of Rs. 48.53 Crores.
Operational Context
Amzen Transportation Industries Private Limited operates in the Railway Wagon Manufacturing Industry, specifically based on Iron & Steel Products. Its registered office is located in New Delhi, while its manufacturing facility spans approximately 72.50 Acres in Village Phatak Majri, Fatehgarh Sahib, Punjab. Despite its infrastructure, the plant is currently not under operation. Financial disclosures indicate a sharp decline in turnover, recording ₹ 0.11 Crores in FY24, followed by ₹ NIL in FY25 and FY26.
Strategic Implications
The acquisition addresses a key geographical gap in Cosmic CRF’s operations. By securing assets in Punjab, the company aims to enhance operational capabilities across India. The target’s existing land bank and manufacturing setup provide immediate scale potential once operationalized. The deal underscores the company’s aggressive expansion strategy through insolvency-driven acquisitions, allowing it to bypass greenfield development timelines while acquiring established industrial assets at a discounted valuation relative to replacement cost.
The next critical milestone is the NCLT’s approval of the resolution plan. Once sanctioned, Cosmic CRF must execute the payment schedule within the stipulated 90-day or 12-month windows to finalize the transfer of control. This transaction marks a significant step in consolidating the fragmented railway wagon manufacturing sector.
