The most recent insolvency notice for J T Leyland Limited is an Appointment of administrators, published 24 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Rajnesh Mittal; Benjamin Jones, appointed 21 September 2026. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case CR-2026-007280). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 October 2025, showed total assets of £1.8m and net assets of -£26k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 10 months before its first insolvency notice. Administration is a formal insolvency process in which licensed insolvency practitioners (the administrators) take control of a company to try to rescue it as a going concern, or — where that is not possible — to achieve a better result for creditors than an immediate winding-up and to realise the assets. A statutory moratorium halts most legal action against the company while the administrators act.
