Finally, in June 2019, it's $6.1 billion bid for the bankrupt steel company, owned by the Ruia family, was approved by a lower court but the Supreme Court of India has put the proposal on hold once again. A bench headed by Justice Rohinton F. Nariman admitted the appeals by Essar Steel lenders and ArcelorMittal challenging the order of the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT). The share price of ArcelorMittal jumped over 3.7% in trade in Amsterdam. The court said it will conduct detailed hearing on the contentions made in the appeal and also look into the issues emerging from the verdict after two weeks. ArcelorMittal had offered ₹42,000 crore to Essar Steel's lenders and promised to invest another ₹8,000 crore in the company.

In the case of Essar Steel, the operational creditors include energy companies Indial Oil, ONGC, NTPC, BPCL, and GAIL. Both the banks and the suppliers would have received 60% of the dues.
