The word used by you is re-construction. Internal and External.
Internal reconstruction is when the company is in loss and the interest burden or the creditors are increasing then you can reduce the value of your shares, negotiate with the creditors for settlement of debts, revaluation of assets etc.
External means going to BIFR which will reduce the Bank liability and liabilities of creditors by capitalising the debt or reduction of bank interest.
It is not a case of amalgamation that a new company will come into force
