On 23rd August 2018, the IBBI issued a 19 page order signed by the WT Director and also by the Chairman of IBBI.

Not just that, he had also contravened regulation 7(2)(a)(h) and (i) of the IBBI IP Regulations. Furthermore, he was credited with contravention of clauses 1,2,3,5,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,19,24 and 25 of the Code of Conduct appended to IBBI IP Regulations. Lastly he was also found to have contravened Regulations 6(3), 13, 27(a) and 36 of the IBBI IRP for CP Regulations. While most of us are unaware or don’t care about the numerals mentioned above, but it is important to understand the breadth of the achievements of man and the detailed extent to which the Board goes about in military precision to clean up the dirt created by one of its own. The success of the most ambitious reform is so critically dependent on the fulcrum of the Institution of the Insolvency Professional that it needs to be constantly guarded and protected from the few bad apples within. Some of the statements/observations made in the 19 page report are subtle, while some are sharp, gives the nation an assurance that the men in charge mean business.
