Issues:
1. Application for dissolution of corporate debtor under section 54 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. Detailed Analysis: The Tribunal received an application from the resolution professional seeking an order for the dissolution of the corporate debtor, M/s. Taksheel Solutions Ltd., under section 54 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. The corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) was initiated based on a petition by an operational creditor, leading to the appointment of a resolution professional, followed by the appointment of a liquidator. The liquidator, in compliance with regulations, conducted public announcements, filed necessary documents, progress reports, and distributed proceeds to stakeholders. Subsequently, the liquidator filed an application under regulation 45 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Liquidation Process) Regulations, 2016, requesting the Tribunal to order the dissolution of the corporate debtor as the liquidation process was deemed complete. Section 54(1) of the IBC states that upon complete liquidation of a corporate debtor's assets, the liquidator must apply for its dissolution. After reviewing the final report and assets liquidation details, the Tribunal found that all assets had been liquidated, and there were no further assets for disposal. Consequently, the Tribunal deemed it appropriate to pass an order for the dissolution of the corporate debtor, M/s. Taksheel Solutions Ltd., in accordance with section 54(1) of the IBC, thereby relieving the liquidator of their duties. The Tribunal directed the liquidator to submit a copy of the dissolution order to the Registrar of Companies, Hyderabad, along with the corporate debtor's books and files. Additionally, instructions were given to update the master data with the Registrar of Companies and inform the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India about the dissolution. The case filed by the liquidator for the dissolution of the company was disposed of, and the registry was directed to archive the case file since the debtor company was dissolved, and no pending proceedings remained.
