GFG ALLIANCE: Tahmoor Liquidators Confirm Up to 238 Redundancies
----------------------------------------------------------------
ABC News reports that hundreds of workers at a coal mine south-west
of Sydney are set to lose their jobs after liquidators confirmed
redundancies as part of the process of selling the mine.
Tahmoor Colliery, owned by Sanjeev Gupta's GFG Alliance, was forced
into liquidation last week after the British billionaire failed to
stop the move.
According to the ABC, the liquidators, McGrathNicol, met management
on the site on March 9 and the Mining and Energy Union (MEU) on
March 11.
The liquidators on March 12 announced plans to make up to 238
full-time equivalent positions redundant, the ABC says.
They said consultation with the mine's 328 workers was expected to
conclude this week.
The ABC relates that union leaders said the decision was widely
anticipated but had still come as a blow to workers and their
families, many of whom have endured more than a year of
uncertainty.
Bob Timbs from the MEU said the workforce had been preparing for
the possibility of liquidation after months of instability
surrounding the mine's ownership.
"We have steeled ourselves for it, but it's never easy when this
happens, and it's difficult," the ABC quotes Mr. Timbs as saying.
The Tahmoor mine has been mothballed for 14 months amid financial
turmoil surrounding its ownership group, GFG Alliance.
One of the mine's creditors, Coal Mines Insurance, sought a
winding-up order in the Supreme Court.
Last week, the order was approved, and the mine was placed into
liquidation after administrators were unable to demonstrate that
the mine had secure ongoing funding, the ABC notes.
About GFG Alliance
GFG Alliance is a global group of businesses in industries
including steel, aluminium, and energy.
GFG Alliance has had significant operations in Australia, including
the Whyalla Steelworks in South Australia run by OneSteel
Manufacturing Pty Limited, Tahmoor Coal in New South Wales, and
Liberty Bell Bay in Tasmania.
On Feb. 19, 2025, KordaMentha partners Mark Mentha, Sebastian Hams,
Michael Korda and Lara Wiggins were appointed voluntary
administrators of OneSteel Manufacturing.
The appointment was made by the South Australian Government. The
state government took the decision to place OneSteel in
administration, after losing confidence in the financial capability
of GFG Alliance to pay its bills as and when they fall due, and in
GFG's ability to secure funding needed for the ongoing operation of
the steelworks, according to Department for Energy and Mining.
Liberty Primary Metals Australia (LPMA) is the holding entity for
GFG's Australian steel and mining businesses, including Tahmoor.
Michael Brereton, Rashnyl Prasad and Sean Wengel of William Buck
was appointed as administrator of the company on Nov. 3, 2025.
Joseph Hayes and Christopher Johnson of Wexted Advisors were
appointed as administrators of Tahmoor Coal on Feb. 9, 2026.
HEALTHSCOPE NEWCO: La Spina Ousted After Bust-up With Receivers
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Australian Financial Review reports that the race to save
Australia's second-largest private hospital operator Healthscope is
in turmoil after chief executive Tino La Spina was ousted following
a breakdown in his relationship with receivers McGrathNicol.
Tensions between the outspoken Mr. La Spina and Healthscope's
receivers and lenders have been simmering for months, but boiled
over on March 12 after he wrote a memo to staff accusing
McGrathNicol of making decisions outside their remit, according to
the Financial Review.
The Financial Review relates that Mr. La Spina was advised on March
13 he had been placed on gardening leave until April and
Healthscope said on March 16 he was no longer performing the role
and had been replaced on an interim basis by the company's chief
operating officer Nicole Waldron.
In response, Mr. La Spina insisted he remained CEO and was
disappointed the company had announced a new interim boss while a
mediation process was underway.
"Mr. La Spina was informed on Friday that his relationship with the
receivers had irretrievably broken down in circumstances where he
was not provided with any particulars for that statement or an
opportunity to work through any issues," the Financial Review
quotes Mr. La Spina's spokesman as saying.
"Mr La Spina's position is and remains, that as the chief executive
officer, he must be able to express opinions in a frank and
forthright manner in order to discharge his fiduciary duties."
Mr. La Spina, a former Qantas executive, joined Healthscope in
February last year, just months before the hospital operator fell
into receivership with debts of AUD1.6 billion, and was working
with McGrathNicol to implement a proposal to turn the company into
a not-for-profit entity, according to the Financial Review.
His direct management style and differences of opinions with
McGrathNicol over the implementation of the so-called For Purpose
proposal, including the level of debt it would hold, contributed to
his departure, said three sources familiar with the situation but
not authorised to speak publicly, the Financial Review relays.
The Financial Review says there has been long-running tension over
who was the architect of the For Purpose plan and how much say
management would have in the make-up of the new entity. Mr. La
Spina was also an outspoken critic of health insurers and the
company's landlords, who have said they are collaborating on a
rival offer for the company.
His removal is the latest twist in the saga surrounding the future
of the remaining 31 hospitals in the Healthscope network that have
not been sold, the Financial Review notes. The Albanese government
is watching the fallout closely, hoping to avoid hospital closures
at a time when the public system is under unprecedented strain.
McGrathNicol declined to comment on the reasons for Mr. La Spina's
departure but said it remained committed to the For Purpose
proposal, the Financial Review relays. The receivers did not
mention Mr. La Spina's name in a statement welcoming Ms. Waldron's
appointment.
About Healthscope
Healthscope provides healthcare services. The Company manages a
network of hospitals, clinics, and physicians for the provision of
emergency care, women's services, cancer care, and pediatric
services. Healthscope operates 38 hospitals across Australia.
On May 26, 2025, Keith Crawford, Matthew Caddy, Jason Ireland &
Katherine Sozou of McGrathNicol Restructuring were appointed as
Receivers and Managers of ANZ Hospitals Pty Ltd and Healthscope
NewCo Pty Ltd. The appointments are limited to these two entities
only, which are 'holding companies' within the Healthscope Group
corporate structure.
Craig Shepard, Mark Korda, Andrew Knight and Lara Wiggins of
KordaMentha were appointed as administrators of Healthscope Newco
Pty Ltd and ANZ Hospitals Pty Ltd on May 26, 2025.
According to Sky News Australia, the lenders behind Healthscope
have opted to call in receivers to find a buyer for the private
hospital operator. Healthscope was purchased by Canadian asset
management firm Brookfield in 2019, however, it handed control of
the health company to the lenders earlier in May 2025. This
syndicate of hedge funds and banks voted on May 26 to put the
company into receivership, Sky News Australia said.
MACQUARIE GREEK: Enters Voluntary Administration
------------------------------------------------
The Greek Herald reports that the Macquarie Greek Studies
Foundation has entered voluntary administration, with an external
administrator appointed to take control of the organisation.
According to records lodged with the Australian Securities and
Investments Commission (ASIC), Timothy James Cook of Balance
Insolvency was appointed administrator on March 15, The Greek
Herald discloses.
Under Australia's corporate law framework, voluntary administration
is a process in which an independent administrator is appointed to
assess an organisation's financial position and determine possible
next steps, including restructuring, returning control to
directors, or winding up the company.
According to The Greek Herald, the development comes shortly after
the Foundation's Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held at Ramsgate
RSL on Sunday, March 15, where members adopted the audited
financial statements for the year ending 2025 and elected six
directors unopposed to fill board vacancies.
Leon Bombotas chaired the AGM after Board Chair Theophilus Premetis
allegedly did not attend.
Mr. Premetis has disputed this account and told The Greek Herald he
briefly attended at the outset of the meeting, opened proceedings
and informed those present that the organisation had entered
voluntary administration before leaving. Minutes of the AGM
reviewed by The Greek Herald, however, record that he was not
present when the meeting formally proceeded.
Following the meeting, Mr. Bombotas issued a statement to The Greek
Herald addressing rumours circulating that some directors may have
been considering placing the Foundation into voluntary
administration.
"At this stage there has been no formal notification of such a step
to the Secretary or to the meeting," Mr. Bombotas said.
However, corporate records reviewed by The Greek Herald show that
the Foundation was placed into voluntary administration on March
15, 2026.
The Greek Herald relates that Mr. Bombotas noted that the audited
financial statements adopted at the AGM related to the reporting
period ending in 2025 and that, since that reporting period, the
Board had not yet received a full written financial update for the
current period other than a verbal briefing from the Treasurer.
According to Mr. Bombotas, the Treasurer had previously informed
the Board that the Foundation's "Taverna Night" fundraising event
held in November had been profitable, while a one-off donation to
the University of Ioannina in October had been approved by the
Board at the time, The Greek Herald relays.
"Based on the information currently available the Foundation
remains solvent and there is nothing to indicate that it is unable,
or likely to become unable, to meet its financial obligations," Mr.
Bombotas said.

STAR ENTERTAINMENT: WhiteHawk Capital Considers AUD400MM Loan
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Australian Financial Review reports that executives from
California-based private credit firm WhiteHawk Capital have flown
to Australia to visit Star Entertainment's casinos as they consider
whether to lend the challenged operator more than AUD400 million.
Star, which owns casinos in Sydney, Brisbane, and the Gold Coast,
secured another critical debt waiver from existing lenders last
month, avoiding immediate default, the Financial Review recalls. It
is attempting to replace its existing AUD430 million loan with a
new agreement from WhiteHawk before the end of this month.
The Financial Review relates that sources with knowledge of the
talks, who requested anonymity to speak freely, said WhiteHawk's
managing director Alex Zuckerman and his team were visiting Star's
three precincts as they consider whether to sign a binding
agreement.
Star chairman Soo Kim is also in town, helping accelerate plans to
restructure the business and cut hundreds of jobs from its
corporate division, the Financial Review relays.
Bally's, which owns 19 casinos in the US, and Australia's
billionaire Mathieson family, who made their name in pubs and
pokies, took control of Star Entertainment in November and hold
more than 61 per cent of the company, recalls the Financial Review.
The new owners want to refinance Star's debt to secure more
favourable loan terms under a broader strategy designed to turn
around the fortunes of the ailing casino group.
Star's existing loans, agreed around this time last year, came with
strict conditions, including leverage ratios and interest coverage
tests, reflecting its precarious financial position.
According to the Financial Review, the current lenders, which
include Australia's Soul Patts, Macquarie, Perpetual and Deutsche
Bank, have consistently waived covenants but have charged fees that
Star's new owners considered excessive. Lenders had been seeking as
much as AUD20 million, or almost 5 per cent of the loan value, to
waive the covenants.
The Financial Review relates that the sources said some lenders,
including Soul Patts, are willing to participate in the new debt
refinance package, but the preference is for WhiteHawk Capital to
be the sole provider.

VIQ SOLUTIONS: Australian Units Enter Voluntary Administration
--------------------------------------------------------------
VIQ Solutions Inc. on March 15 announced that its Australian
division, consisting of VIQ Australia Pty Ltd, VIQ Solutions Pty
Ltd, VIQ Solutions Australia Pty Ltd, VIQ Pty Ltd and VIQ Australia
Services Pty Ltd ("VIQ Australia"), has been placed into voluntary
administration pursuant to Part 5.3A of the Corporations Act 2001
(Australia). VIQ Solutions is taking this action in order to focus
its management and capital resources on the Company's existing
operations in North America and the United Kingdom, which remain
the Company's highest performing business units.
"The decision to appoint voluntary administrators follows a
thorough review of Australian operations, including the current
challenging business environment in Australia, and the negative
impact on the financial results of our overall business," said
Larry Taylor, Chief Executive Officer of VIQ Solutions. "We are
disappointed that we were unable to bring the full capability of
the Company's global scalable architecture and best practices to
the Australian business. We will support the administrator to
ensure that the business of VIQ Australia continues to operate
without disruption, given that VIQ Australia supports critical
functions of the Australian courts and law enforcement."
The Company is optimistic that customers will continue to support
VIQ Australia through the administration process and while the
administrator works to ensure the future of VIQ Australia is
secured.
In pursuing voluntary administration, the Company is seeking to
realize as much value as possible from VIQ Australia's remaining
assets for the benefit of all stakeholders. The Company will
continue to work cooperatively with the administrator, customers,
employees, government authorities, and other affected parties
throughout the process. The voluntary administration constitutes an
event of default under the terms of the credit agreement dated
January 13, 2023, as amended, between the Company and Beedie
Investments Ltd.
Preliminary Financial Results for Year Ended December 31, 2025
VIQ Solutions' preliminary unaudited financial results for the year
ended December 31, 2025 indicate estimated consolidated revenue of
approximately $41 million and Adjusted EBITDA (see "Non-IFRS
Measures" below for details) of approximately $5 million. Excluding
VIQ Australia, estimated consolidated revenue would be
approximately $20 million and consolidated Adjusted EBITDA would be
approximately $3 million. VIQ Solutions expects to streamline
operations in its North America and the United Kingdom business to
improve Adjusted EBITDA in the year ahead.
The above preliminary financial results for the year ended December
31, 2025 are based on management's estimates and have not yet been
approved by the Company's audit committee or its board of
directors. The Company's final financial results for its fiscal
year could differ from these preliminary financial results.
Appointment of New Chief Financial Officer
VIQ Solutions announced that it has appointed a new Chief Financial
Officer, Michael Wolfe, effective April 1, 2026. Mr. Wolfe has over
30 years' experience in finance, accounting, private equity and
business valuation and has also served as a director for several
private and public companies, including as a member of audit and
other independent committees. He was previously the CFO of several
mid-market Canadian companies including Baylin Technologies Inc., a
TSX listed company in the wireless communications industry. Mr.
Wolfe also brings a successful track record in acquisitions,
management buyouts, growth financings and recapitalizations. Mr.
Wolfe is a Chartered Professional Accountant.
In connection with Mr. Wolfe's appointment, Alexie Edwards has
resigned as Chief Financial Officer effective March 31, 2026. It is
expected that Mr. Edwards will continue to work with the Company to
ensure a smooth transition. The Company wishes Mr. Edwards well in
his new endeavors.
CEO Compensation Arrangement
The Company also announced that it has entered into a management
services agreement (the "MSA") with Larry Taylor effective April 1,
2026 to support Mr. Taylor's transition to full-time Chief
Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Taylor has been Chief
Executive Officer of the Company since August 2025, and has
received no remuneration as CEO to date, all while supporting the
Company through insider-led private placements. Pursuant to the
MSA, the Company will pay a one-time management fee of US$50,000 on
April 1, 2026, followed by monthly fees of US$25,000 commencing May
1, 2026. The Company has a right to terminate the MSA upon 90 days'
written notice.

FANTASIA HOLDINGS: Unveils Offshore Debt Restructuring Terms
------------------------------------------------------------
Reuters reports that Fantasia Holdings on March 13 unveiled
detailed terms of its offshore debt restructuring, including plans
to issue new equity, convertible bonds and long-dated secured
notes.
According to Reuters, Fantasia is attempting to restructure about
$4.66 billion of its offshore debt, through new shares, mandatory
convertible bonds and about $1.44 billion in new secured notes to
settle creditor claims.
The property developer defaulted on its debt in 2021, among the
many to have done so amid a crisis in China's real estate
sector. A growing number of companies have reached restructuring
agreements with their creditors.
As of June 30, 2025, Fantasia had about 66,972 million Chinese yuan
($9.71 billion) of debt, it said in a statement.
Under the terms of the debt restructuring proposal, the
Shenzhen-based developer plans to allot 5.14 billion fresh shares
to scheme creditors at HK$1.52 apiece, Reuters says.
Reuters relates that Fantasia will also issue zero-coupon mandatory
convertible bonds worth $501.2 million, which would convert into
2.57 billion shares at the same price of HK$1.52.
It will also issue $632.5 million in secured notes due 2031 and
$809.6 million due 2034 - a total of $1.44 billion - both carrying
a 3% coupon.
Reuters adds that Fantasia will also convert the entire HK$1.31
billion ($167.36 million) shareholder loan balance by issuing
4.38 billion new shares to its controlling shareholder at HK$0.30
each, with all accrued interest permanently forgiven once the
restructuring becomes effective.
Separately, controlling shareholder Baby Zeng will inject $6
million as a shareholder loan into the company, with an interest
of 8% per annum. These funds will be funneled towards the fees and
expenses of the proposed restructuring, Reuters relays.

As part of its process and in accordance with its rating agreement
with CHPL, ICRA has been trying to seek information from the entity
so as to monitor its performance. Further, ICRA has been sending
repeated reminders to the entity for payment of surveillance fee

India's electric two-wheeler sector.
TOI relates that the order, issued on March 3, 2026, follows the

operational creditor, Metro Tyres Ltd, filed an application under
Section 9 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC).
Subsequently, the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) admitted
Hero Electric Vehicles Pvt Ltd into the Corporate Insolvency
Resolution Process (CIRP). Bhoopesh Gupta was appointed as the
Resolution Professional (RP), who subsequently issued public
announcements in Financial Express and Jansatta, collated creditor
claims, and constituted the Committee of Creditors (CoC).
TOI says the reconstituted Committee of Creditors (CoC) included
key lenders, including Bank of Baroda, which held a secured claim
of INR55.35 crore with a 39.70 per cent voting share, South Indian
Bank with INR17.62 crore (12.64 per cent), and IDFC First Bank with
a 6.76 per cent share. Among unsecured creditors, SLK Software
accounted for a substantial 34.34 per cent voting share.
Over 16 CoC meetings, the RP conducted two rounds of Expressions of
Interest (Form G), shortlisted prospective resolution applicants,
and received multiple resolution plans. However, despite extensive
deliberations and negotiations, none of the proposals secured the
required approval from the creditors, TOI states.

obtaining information through letters and emails dated November 10,
2025 and February 25, 2026 among others, apart from telephonic
communication. However, the issuer has remained non-cooperative.
Investors, lenders and all other market participants should
exercise due caution with reference to the rating assigned/reviewed
with the suffix 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING'' as the rating has been
arrived at without any interaction with the management and is based
on best available, limited or dated information regarding the
company. Such non-cooperation by a rated entity may be a result of
weakening of its credit risk profile. Ratings with the 'ISSUER NOT
COOPERATING'' suffix lack a forward looking component.
Detailed Rationale
Despite repeated attempts to engage with the management of JKI,
Crisil Ratings did not receive any information on the financial
performance or strategic intent of the entity. This restricts the
ability of Crisil Ratings to take a forward-looking view on the
credit quality of the company. The rating action on JKI is
consistent with the criteria detailed in 'Assessing information

SHIVANG CARPETS: CRISIL Keeps D Debt Ratings in Not Cooperating
---------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL Ratings said the ratings on bank facilities of Shivang
Carpets Private Limited (SCPL) continue to be 'CRISIL D/CRISIL D
Issuer Not Cooperating'.
Amount
Facilities (INR Crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Corporate Loan 3.5 CRISIL D (Issuer Not
Cooperating)
Corporate Loan 5.5 CRISIL D (Issuer Not
Cooperating)
Foreign Bill 7 CRISIL D (Issuer Not
Purchase Cooperating)
Packing Credit 2 CRISIL D (Issuer Not
Cooperating)
Proposed Long Term 1.1 CRISIL D (Issuer Not
Bank Loan Facility Cooperating)
Standby Line 0.9 CRISIL D (Issuer Not
of Credit Cooperating)
Crisil Ratings has been consistently following up with SCPL for
obtaining information through letter and email dated January 23,
2026 among others, apart from telephonic communication. However,
the issuer has remained non cooperative.
'The investors, lenders and all other market participants should
exercise due caution with reference to the rating assigned/reviewed
with the suffix 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING' as the rating is arrived
at without any management interaction and is based on best
available or limited or dated information on the company. Such non
co-operation by a rated entity may be a result of deterioration in
its credit risk profile. These ratings with 'ISSUER NOT
COOPERATING' suffix lack a forward looking component.'
Detailed Rationale
Despite repeated attempts to engage with the management, Crisil
Ratings failed to receive any information on either the financial
performance or strategic intent of SCPL, which restricts Crisil
Ratings' ability to take a forward looking view on the entity's
credit quality. Crisil Ratings believes that rating action on SCPL
is consistent with 'Assessing Information Adequacy Risk'. Based on
the last available information, the ratings on bank facilities of
SCPL continues to be 'Crisil D/Crisil D Issuer not cooperating'.
SCPL was originally established in 2001 as a proprietorship firm by
Mr. Ranjeet Singh, and was reconstituted as a private limited
company in 2005, with Mr. Abhishek Singh, the founder's nephew,
joining as director. SCPL manufactures and exports floor coverings,
mainly hand-made woollen rugs and carpets, at its facilities in
Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh. In 2007-08 (refers to financial year, April
1 to March 31), it started manufacturing polyester carpets, which
now account for 60 percent of its revenue.
SWETHARKA CONSTRUCTIONS: ICRA Keeps B Rating in Not Cooperating
---------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has kept the Long-Term and Short-Term ratings of Sri Swetharka
Constructions Private Limited (SSCPL) in the 'Issuer Not
Cooperating' category. The ratings are denoted as "[ICRA]B(Stable);
ISSUER NOT COOPERATING/[ICRA]A4; ISSUER NOT COOPERATING".
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------

Cash Credit to remain under 'Issuer Not
Cooperating' category
Short Term- 3.00 [ICRA]A4 ISSUER NOT
Non Fund Based- COOPERATING; Rating continues
Others to remain under 'Issuer Not
Cooperating' category
The rating continues to remain under "Issuer Not Cooperating" is
because of lack of adequate information regarding SSCPL's
performance and hence the uncertainty around its credit risk. ICRA
assesses whether the information available about the entity is
commensurate with its rating and reviews the same as per its
"Policy in respect of non-cooperation by a rated entity" available
at www.icra.in. The lenders, investors and other market
participants are thus advised to exercise appropriate caution while
using this rating as the rating may not adequately reflect the
credit risk profile of the entity.
As part of its process and in accordance with its rating agreement
with SSCPL, ICRA has been trying to seek information from the
entity so as to monitor its performance. Further, ICRA has been
sending repeated reminders to the entity for payment of
surveillance fee that became due. Despite multiple requests by
ICRA, the entity's management has remained non-cooperative. In the
absence of requisite information and in line with the aforesaid
policy of ICRA, the rating has been continued to the "Issuer Not
Cooperating" category. The rating is based on the best available
information.
Sri Swetharka Constructions Private Limited (SSCPL) started its
operations in 2006 as a partnership firm named "Sri Lakshmi
Constructions". It was converted into a private limited company in
2014 and renamed to Sri Swetharka Constructions Private Limited.

Short Term- 3.00 [ICRA]A4 ISSUER NOT
Fund Based COOPERATING; Rating continues
Cash Credit to remain under 'Issuer Not

The rating continues to remain under "Issuer Not Cooperating" is
because of lack of adequate information regarding YMWL's
performance and hence the uncertainty around its credit risk. ICRA
assesses whether the information available about the entity is
commensurate with its rating and reviews the same as per its
"Policy in respect of noncooperation by a rated entity" available
