NCLAT held that dismissal for want of prosecution was unjustified where multiple adjournments were caused by the Tribunal due to paucity of time and technical issues. The ruling emphasizes that litigants should not be penalized when delays are not entirely attributable to them.
Fee reduction of ₹50,000 for the Interim Resolution Professional (IRP) ordered by NCLT was reasonable, given that the IRP’s role was restricted by an interim stay on the constitution of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) between February 28 and September 1, 2023.
NCLAT observed that royalty payment obligation flowed directly from Technical Guidance Agreement and did not depend on issuance of invoices. Debt and default were therefore held established.
The Tribunal reiterated that disbursement of funds to the debtor is an essential condition for financial debt. Since no money was advanced to the corporate debtor, the claimant was not a financial creditor.
The NCLAT ruled that withdrawal under Section 12A of the IBC cannot be invoked once liquidation proceedings have commenced. The Tribunal held that post-liquidation settlement can only proceed through the Section 230 route under the Companies Act.
NCLAT held that foreign oil and gas assets owned through Videocon subsidiaries could not be included in the CIRP of Videocon Industries Ltd. The Tribunal ruled that subsidiaries and parent companies are distinct legal entities under insolvency law.
NCLAT held that a joint venture arrangement did not prevent insolvency proceedings where separate agreements clearly imposed supply obligations and payment responsibilities between parties. Tribunal ruled that unpaid supply dues constituted operational debt under IBC.
A resolution applicant could not unilaterally alter its financial proposal through a last minute addendum after completion of the challenge process and commencement of voting under the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP).
The Supreme Court upheld joint insolvency proceedings against two interconnected real estate companies due to common management and integrated project operations. The ruling clarifies when multiple corporate entities can face consolidated CIRP under the IBC.
NCLAT held that the Corporate Debtor’s email offering payment subject to acceptance of a consequence sheet amounted to acknowledgment of operational debt. The Tribunal found that the dispute raised regarding quality and delays was not a genuine pre-existing dispute under Section 9 of the IBC.
