ETtech Explainer: What's next for Byju's after SC stays settlement deal with BCCI

Byju Raveendran, the embattled founder of Byju's, appeared close to settling his company's payment dispute of Rs 158 crore with the Indian cricket board after approval by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT).

However, on August 14, the Supreme Court intervened by staying the NCLAT order that had approved the settlement agreement between Think & Learn Pvt Ltd--Byju's parent company--and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), adding to the woes of the troubled edtech firm.

On Thursday, the apex court rejected pleas by Byju's and BCCI to halt a meeting of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) in its ongoing insolvency case. The court will hear the matter next on August 27.
