This legal summary concerns the maintainability of a Section 7 application for initiating the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against a Corporate Debtor. The key points are: The transaction involved receivables discounting on a recourse basis, constituting a financial debt u/s 5(8)(e) of the IBC Act. The Supreme Court's rulings in Innoventive Industries Ltd. vs. ICICI Bank and Mobilox Innovations Pvt. Ltd. vs. Kirusa Software Pvt. Ltd. establish that for a Section 7 application by a Financial Creditor, the existence of a financial debt and default exceeding Rs. 1 crore is sufficient for admission, without considering defenses of set-off or counterclaim. In the present case, the Financial Creditor proved the existence of debt and default exceeding Rs. 1 crore by the Corporate Debtor. Therefore, as per Section 7(5) of the IBC Act, the application was admitted, and the CIRP was initiated against the Corporate Debtor, with a moratorium declared.
