Admitting BCCI's plea, a two-member Bengaluru-based bench of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) issued notice to Think & Learn on Nov. 28, 2023.
The NCLT order further said, 'two weeks is granted to the Respondent (Byju's) to file a reply and one week thereafter is granted to the Applicant (BCCI) to file rejoinder, if any, after duly serving the copy on the other side.' The tribunal has directed to list the matter on Dec. 22, 2023, for the next hearing in this matter.
During the proceedings, BCCI's counsel informed NCLT that a general notice was issued to Byju's through an e-mail dated Jan. 6, 2023, with a default amount of Rs 158 crore, excluding TDS.
Byju's first came on board back in 2019 when mobile manufacturer Oppo transferred the sponsorship rights to the online tutorial firm.
