The NCLAT also wrongly recorded that there was no further evidence in support of the fact that any amount was outstanding. Further, the NCLAT also held that a document filed in the earlier petition that was dismissed as withdrawn could not have been relied upon by the adjudicating authority. The NCLAT is wrong on all these counts. The NCLAT order is set aside and that of the NCLT is restored. The resolution proceedings will continue from the stage at which they were interrupted. - CIVIL APPEAL NO. 9425 OF 2019 CIVIL APPEAL NO. 1911 OF 2020 CIVIL APPEAL NO. 3112 OF 2020 (Diary No. 45282 of 2019) - - - Dated:- 8-9-2020 - .....
