The NCLT held that insolvency proceedings against a personal guarantor cannot proceed unless the guarantee has been specifically invoked through a contractual demand notice. A Rule 7 notice under the Personal Guarantor Rules was found to be merely procedural. Since no valid invocation was established, the Tribunal ruled that no default had arisen under the IBC.
The NCLT dismissed the insolvency application after finding that the agreements forming the basis of the alleged operational debt were not properly executed. The absence of signatures and uncertainty regarding execution dates undermined their evidentiary value. As a result, the applicant failed to establish a maintainable claim under Section 9 of the IBC.
The Court noted that the Revenue had not submitted any claim during the insolvency resolution process for the relevant assessment years. Following established precedent, the appeals were dismissed.
The IBBI imposed a two-year suspension after finding that the insolvency professional failed to disclose a financial transaction involving an entity linked to a prospective resolution applicant during the CIRP.

While approving the resolution plan, NCLT clarified that exemptions relating to taxes, duties, and statutory compliances must be obtained from the competent authorities separately. Approval of the plan does not itself waive statutory liabilities.
The First Appellate Authority noted that the CPIO exceeded the statutory RTI timeline by one day. However, since the requested closure letter had been furnished, no further action was considered necessary.
The IBBI held that prolonged failure to hold SCC meetings, delayed progress reporting, and repeated absence before the Adjudicating Authority amounted to serious professional misconduct. The order underscores the importance of strict adherence to statutory duties under the insolvency framework.
