The Tribunal instructed the 'Financial Creditor' and 'Operational Creditor' of the four Amber Entities to provide charts showing the amounts payable, matured, and any funds generated from Provident Fund, Pension Fund, Gratuity Fund, or Superannuation Fund by the given deadline. Similar charts were requested for the remaining nine Amber Entities. 3. Additionally, the Financial and Operational Creditors were asked to submit relevant provisions of the contract, limited to two pages, along with the amount details. The purpose was to gain a clear understanding of the financial obligations and funds available for each entity. 4. For any other companies categorized as 'Green Entity', 'Amber Entity', or 'Red Entity', the Appellant - Union of India was directed to file an affidavit providing necessary information about these entities. 5. The Tribunal scheduled the Appeals 'for orders' on a specific date, emphasizing the importance of the submissions and charts to be provided by the concerned parties. It was crucial for the Tribunal to have comprehensive data before making any decisions. 6. During the interim period, the National Highway Authority of India was restricted from taking any action to cancel agreements with the companies under consideration. This stay order aimed to maintain the status quo until the Tribunal could review the submissions and make informed decisions based on the provided information.
