NBCC (India) Limited has set April 1, 2026, as the appointed date for the merger of its wholly owned subsidiary, HSCC (India) Limited, into itself. The merger, approved by the board on July 14, 2026, aims to consolidate business operations and streamline the corporate structure. The Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM) conveyed its 'No Objection' to the merger via an office memorandum dated July 9, 2026.
The scheme will be executed on a going concern basis under Sections 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013, and is subject to requisite approvals from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Central Government, and other regulatory authorities. As HSCC is a wholly owned subsidiary, no shares, cash consideration, or any other consideration will be issued or paid by NBCC pursuant to the scheme. Consequently, there will be no change in the issued, subscribed, and paid-up share capital, shareholding pattern, voting rights, promoter shareholding, or public shareholding of NBCC.
The rationale for the amalgamation includes the complementary nature of the businesses and the potential for more efficient management. The merger is expected to simplify the corporate structure by eliminating multiple layers, reducing managerial overlap, and removing duplication of administrative functions. It also aims to enhance operational efficiency through the integration of business functions and enable focused decision-making.
Both entities are Central Public Sector Enterprises under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. HSCC is a Schedule-C, Mini Ratna Category-1 CPSE engaged in healthcare infrastructure consultancy and project management. NBCC is a Schedule-A, Navratna CPSE involved in Project Management Consultancy, Engineering Procurement and Construction, and Real Estate Development.
