A major Indian infrastructure financing and development company, IL&FS roiled the nation's financial markets in recent weeks when it defaulted on payments to banks, and ratings agencies downgraded its loans to junk from investment grade.

Its troubles stoked fears of a bigger malaise in India's shadow banking sector.

The new board at IL&FS, which was chosen by the government and appointed by a court-led process at the start of October, is expected to present its resolution plan to a company law tribunal on Wednesday, ET Now said citing the agency sources.

IL&FS declined to comment.

State-owned firms led by Life Insurance Corp of India own nearly 40 percent of the company.
