However, even after steep rise in share prices of these companies, they are far from their respective record highs. For instance, Jaiprakash Associates is still down 92.47% from its record high at Rs340 it touched in 2008.

Similarly, Jaypee Infratech and Jaiprakash Power Ventures are down 80.35% and 95.30% from life highs at Rs100 and Rs144 they hit in 2010 and 2008, respectively.

In 2016, Jaiprakash Associates slipped 32.18%, Jaiprakash Power Ventures fell 43.43% and Jaypee Infratech Ltd lost 42.14% as debts piled on the companies. Lenders have been insisting to sell some of the group’s best assets, and transfer ownership to cut debt.

Now as the group is addressing its debt issue via restructuring and other measures, investors are lapping up shares, analysts said.

“JP Associates is seeing buying interest this year due to massive debt restructuring the company has undertaken but it is yet to be even near its peak,” said an analyst who did not wish to be named.
