Case Law Details
Indian Overseas Bank Vs Mhow Ghatabill Toll Roads Pvt. Ltd. (NCLT Delhi)
The National Company Law Tribunal, Delhi Bench, admitted an application filed by Indian Overseas Bank under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 read with Rule 4 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy (Application to Adjudicating Authority) Rules, 2016 seeking initiation of the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against Mhow Ghatabill Toll Roads Private Limited. The Corporate Debtor, incorporated on 18.08.2011, was engaged in developing the Mhow–Ghatabillod four-lane toll road project in Madhya Pradesh. IL&FS Financial Services Limited had sanctioned a term loan of ₹217 crore under a loan agreement dated 02.03.2012, and pursuant to a novation notice dated 01.10.2012, debt of ₹70 crore was assigned to Indian Overseas Bank, which was accepted by the Corporate Debtor through a Board Resolution dated 27.09.2012. The Corporate Debtor executed security documents in favour of the lenders during October and November 2012.
The Financial Creditor stated that the loan account was classified as a Non-Performing Asset on 29.06.2019 due to non-payment. A demand notice dated 19.08.2019 and a loan recall notice dated 30.06.2020 were issued. According to the application, the Corporate Debtor acknowledged its outstanding dues in its audited financial statements for the financial years 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24, reflecting an outstanding amount of ₹66,08,64,090/-. As on 20.11.2025, the amount claimed was ₹1,17,74,94,044.88, inclusive of contractual interest at 11% per annum and penal interest at 2% per annum. The Financial Creditor contended that both the existence of financial debt and occurrence of default, as required under Section 7 of the Code, stood established.
The matter was first listed on 08.04.2026, when notice was directed to be issued to the Corporate Debtor through all modes, requiring service of notice and filing of proof of service and affidavit of service. The petitioner subsequently filed an affidavit stating that notice had been dispatched through Registered Post Acknowledgement Due on 23.04.2026, which was returned with the endorsement “Addressee Left without Instruction”, and that notice had also been served through the respondent’s known email address on the same date. On 09.06.2026, as no response or appearance had been made, the Tribunal granted another opportunity and listed the matter on 11.06.2026. On 11.06.2026, despite recording that the respondent had been duly served and had not entered appearance, the Tribunal granted a last opportunity, heard the petitioner’s counsel, reserved orders, and directed the petitioner to file brief written submissions within two days, which were filed on 12.06.2026.
The Tribunal examined Sections 5(8), 6 and 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 and observed that its enquiry under Section 7 was confined to determining whether a financial debt existed and whether a default had occurred. It noted that the assigned loan constituted a financial debt under Section 5(8), the account had been classified as NPA on 29.06.2019, and the default was supported by the NeSL certificate, demand notice, and recall notice. The Tribunal further held that the default amount exceeded the threshold prescribed under Section 4 of the Code.
On limitation, the Tribunal considered that although the date of default was 29.06.2019 and the application had been filed on 01.04.2026, the acknowledgements contained in the Corporate Debtor’s audited financial statements for 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24 constituted acknowledgements under Section 18 of the Limitation Act, 1963 and extended the period of limitation. It also noted that despite service of notice, the Corporate Debtor did not appear or dispute the debt or default. The Tribunal concluded that a financial debt existed, default had occurred, the application was within limitation, the application was complete, and no disciplinary proceedings were pending against the proposed Interim Resolution Professional.
Accordingly, the Tribunal admitted the Section 7 application under Section 7(5)(a) of the Code, commenced the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process, and declared a moratorium under Section 14. It appointed Mavent Restructuring Services LLP (Registration No. IBBI/IPE-0154/IPA-3/2023-24/50058) as the Interim Resolution Professional, directed issuance of the public announcement within three days, vested management of the Corporate Debtor in the IRP under Section 17, directed the Financial Creditor to deposit ₹5,00,000 towards CIRP expenses subject to Committee of Creditors approval, and issued consequential directions regarding communication of the order, updating the Corporate Debtor’s status with the Registrar of Companies, intimation to IBBI and government departments, and compliance reporting by the IRP.

FULL TEXT OF THE NCLT JUDGMENT/ORDER
1. The present petition is filed by Indian Overseas Bank (“Financial Creditors”/“FC”/“Petitioners”), before this Adjudicating Authority on 01.04.2026 under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (“Code”), r/w Rule 4 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy (Application to Adjudicating Authority) Rules, 2016 for initiating the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (“CIRP”), declaring moratorium and for appointment of Interim Resolution Professional (“IRP”), against M/s Mhow Ghatabill Toll Road Private Limited the Corporate Debtor (“CD”).
Brief facts of the case as stated in the application:
2. M/s Mhow Ghatabill Toll Roads Private Limited (previously known as Essel Mhow Ghatabill Toll Roads Pvt. Ltd.) bearing CIN: U45203DL20llPTC223896 was incorporated on 18.08.2011 under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The registered address of the Corporate Debtor is Essel House, B-10, Lawrence Road, Industrial Area, New Delhi – 110035, and it is engaged in the business of developing infrastructure projects, particularly a four-lane toll road from Mhow to Ghatabillod in the State of Madhya Pradesh.
3. IL&FS Financial Services Limited (the Original Creditor) sanctioned a term loan of Rs. 217.00 Crores under the Loan Agreement dated 02.03.2012 to the Corporate Debtor for the four-laning of the Mhow–Ghatabillod section in the state of Madhya Pradesh.
4. Pursuant to the Novation Notice dated 01.10.2012, a portion of this debt amounting to INR 70 Crores was assigned to Indian Overseas Bank, the financial creditor herein, in lieu of the sanction letter dated 24.08.2012, which was duly accepted by the Corporate Debtor through its Board Resolution dated 27.09.2012. Further, for securing the aforesaid financial assistance, the Corporate Debtor executed various documents in favour of the lenders during October and November 2012.
5. However, the Corporate Debtor failed to adhere to the repayment obligations and was classified as a Non-Performing Asset (NPA) on 29.06.2019. Consequently, a demand notice dated 19.08.2019, followed by a loan recall notice dated 30.06.2020, was issued to the CD, calling upon it to make the outstanding payments.
6. The Corporate Debtor has time and again acknowledged its outstanding dues payable to the Indian Overseas Bank in its audited financial statements for the years 2021-22, 2022-23, and 2023-24, wherein the outstanding amount stands at Rs. 66,08,64,090/-.
7. However, as the outstanding debt remains unpaid, the Corporate Debtor is liable to refund to the financial creditors an amount to the tune of Rs. 1,17,74,94,044.88 (Rupees One Hundred Seventeen Crore Seventy-Four Lakh Ninety-Four Thousand Forty-Four Rupees and Eighty-Eight Paise Only) inclusive of interest @ 11% p.a. and penal interest @ 2% p.a. as on 20.11.2025.
8. The petitioners have stated that they have successfully established the two factors required u/s 7 of the Code, i.e., a debt which has become due and payable, and that a default has been committed in respect of such debt.
9. The matter was first listed on 08.04.2026, when this Adjudicating Authority directed the issuance of notice to the Respondent through all modes. The relevant extract of the Order is reproduced below:

Before proceeding to examine the issues raised, it would be apposite to refer here to the relevant provisions of the Code.

Explanation.—For the purposes of this sub-section, a default includes a default in respect of a financial debt owed not only to the applicant financial creditor but to any other financial creditor of the corporate debtor.
(2) The financial creditor shall make an application under sub-section (1) in such form and manner and accompanied with such fee as may be prescribed.
(3) The financial creditor shall, along with the application furnish—

(6) The corporate insolvency resolution process shall commence from the date of admission of the application under sub-section (5).
(7) The Adjudicating Authority shall communicate—
(a) the order under clause (a) of sub-section (5) to the financial creditor and the corporate debtor;
(b) the order under clause (b) of sub-section (5) to the financial creditor, within seven days of admission or rejection of such application, as the case may be.
14. An application under section 7 of the Code may be initiated by a FC either by himself or jointly with other FC’s for initiation of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against CD, where there exist a ‘debt’ and a ‘default’, meaning, when a debt becomes due and is not paid, the FC under section 7 has a right to file an application under Section 7 of the Code. Under Section 7(2) of The Code read with The Insolvency and Bankruptcy (Application to Adjudicating Authority) Rules, 2016 (in short ‘AA’ Rules, 2016), a FC is required to apply in the Form 1 (as provided in Rule 4 of ‘AA’ Rules, 2016) accompanied with documents and records as specified in the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons ), Regulations, 2016 (in short “ CIRP Regulations,”). The Form-1 comprises Parts 1 to V, where Parts IV and V require particulars of ‘Financial Debt’ and the ‘Date of Default’.
15. It is pertinent to note that the jurisdiction of this Adjudicating Authority under Section 7 of the IBC is limited to examining whether there exists a “financial debt” and whether a “default” has occurred in respect thereof. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in Innoventive Industries Ltd. v. ICICI Bank (2018) 1 SCC 407 has categorically held that once the Adjudicating Authority is satisfied that a default has occurred, the application shall be admitted unless it is incomplete. The relevant portion of the judgment is attached below for perusal:
“29. The scheme of Section 7 stands in contrast with the scheme under Section 8 where an operational creditor is, on the occurrence of a default, to first deliver a demand notice of the unpaid debt to the operational debtor in the manner provided in Section 8(1) of the Code. Under Section 8(2), the corporate debtor can, within a period of 10 days of receipt of the demand notice or copy of the invoice mentioned in sub-section (1), bring to the notice of the operational creditor the existence of a dispute or the record of the pendency of a suit or arbitration proceedings, which is pre-existing – i.e. before such notice or invoice was received by the corporate debtor. The moment there is existence of such a dispute, the operational creditor gets out of the clutches of the Code.
30. On the other hand, as we have seen, in the case of a corporate debtor who commits a default of a financial debt, the adjudicating authority has merely to see the records of the information utility or other evidence produced by the financial creditor to satisfy itself that a default has occurred. It is of no matter that the debt is disputed so long as the debt is “due” i.e. payable unless interdicted by some law or has not yet become due in the sense that it is payable at some future date. It is only when this is proved to the satisfaction of the adjudicating authority that the adjudicating authority may reject an application and not otherwise.”
From the documents placed on record, it is evident that IL&FS Financial Services Limited had sanctioned a term loan in favour of the Corporate Debtor, and a portion of the said debt amounting to Rs. 70 Crores stood assigned to the present Financial Creditor. Accordingly, the amount claimed by the Applicant clearly falls within the definition of ‘financial debt’ under Section 5(8) of the Code
16. The record further reveals that the Corporate Debtor committed a default in servicing the debt, and the loan account was classified as an NPA on 29.06.2019. The occurrence of default stands substantiated from the NeSL Certificate placed on record at Exhibit “CC” of the Application. The Financial Creditor has also placed on record the demand notice dated 19.08.2019 and the loan recall notice dated 30.06.2020. As on 20.11.2025, an amount of Rs. 1,17,74,94,044.88, inclusive of contractual interest and penal interest, remains due and payable by the Corporate Debtor. Thus, the default amount is well above the threshold prescribed under Section 4 of the Code.
17. We have also considered the issue of limitation. The date of default is stated to be 29.06.2019, and the present Application has been filed on 01.04.2026. The Financial Creditor has relied upon various acknowledgements of liability made by the Corporate Debtor in its audited financial statements for the years 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24. Such acknowledgements, being in writing and duly signed by the authorised directors of the Corporate Debtor, constitute acknowledgements of liability within the meaning of Section 18 of the Limitation Act, 1963 and have the effect of extending the period of limitation. The acknowledgements contained in the audited financial statements unequivocally admit the subsisting liability towards the Financial Creditor and indicate that the debt has not been disputed by the Corporate Debtor.
18. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited v. Bishal Jaiswal & Anr., (2021) 6 SCC 366 has held that acknowledgements of debt contained in duly signed balance sheets and financial statements constitute valid acknowledgements under Section 18 of the Limitation Act and can be relied upon for extending the limitation period in proceedings under the Code. Applying the said principle, we are satisfied that the present Application has been filed within the prescribed period of limitation.
19. It is also pertinent to note that despite service of notice and granting sufficient opportunity, none appeared on behalf of the Corporate Debtor to controvert the averments made in the Application or dispute the debt and default. The documentary evidence placed on record by the Financial Creditor thus remains unrebutted.
20. Upon consideration of the pleadings and documents placed on record, this Adjudicating Authority is satisfied that (i) a financial debt exists between the parties, (ii) the Corporate Debtor has committed default in repayment of the said debt, (iii) the Application is within limitation, and (iv) the Application is complete in all material particulars as required under Section 7 of the Code read with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy (Application to Adjudicating Authority) Rules, 2016. Further, no disciplinary proceedings are stated to be pending against the proposed Interim Resolution Professional.
21. Accordingly, this Adjudicating Authority is satisfied that the conditions stipulated under Section 7(5)(a) of the Code stand fulfilled and the present Application deserves to be admitted. Thus, we admit the present petition and pass the following order:
