[SMM NPI Market Flash] Indonesia GNI Enters Court-Supervised Debt Suspension (PKPU), Not Liquidation

PT Gunbuster Nickel Industry (GNI) has been placed into a temporary PKPU process by the Central Jakarta Commercial Court, under case no. 140/Pdt.Sus-PKPU/2026, ruled on June 19, 2026. PKPU is a court-supervised suspension of debt payments and restructuring procedure, not bankruptcy liquidation. The court granted a 43-day standstill and appointed a supervisory judge and administrators to handle claims and a restructuring plan, with a first creditors meeting set for July 2 and a vote on July 28. SMM said the move makes visible the financial and operating strain at some high-cost, high-debt RKEF NPI producers, following earlier reports of GNI layoffs and line maintenance. The near-term impact on NPI supply depends on line operations, ore procurement, and how the restructuring proceeds.
