The summary focuses on the approval of a resolution plan by the Committee of Creditors (CoC) and the limited scope of judicial review by the adjudicating authority. The key points are: The decision of the CoC to approve a resolution plan with the requisite majority (66% vote share) is a collective business decision and is sacrosanct and binding on all stakeholders, irrespective of the composition of the CoC. The commercial wisdom of the CoC cannot be fettered. The adjudicating authority has limited jurisdiction in approving the resolution plan and cannot evaluate the merits or rationale underlying the CoC's commercial decision. Merely because there is a reduction in the claim of any creditor does not make the resolution plan violative of the law. Any clause in the resolution plan requiring creditors to take a haircut cannot be construed as violative of the relevant section. The adjudicating authority did not err in approving the resolution plan, and the appellate tribunal dismissed the appeal, finding no transgression causing serious miscarriage of justice.
