The NCLAT upheld the Adjudicating Authority's order recalling ...


Fraudulent CIRP initiation by ineligible 'lenders' dismissed; collusion with promoters.

January 18, 2025

Case Laws     IBC     AT

The NCLAT upheld the Adjudicating Authority's order recalling the initiation of CIRP against the Corporate Debtor u/s 65 of the IBC. It found that the Section 7 application was filed fraudulently and with malicious intent by the Appellants for purposes other than insolvency resolution. The Appellants, despite being ineligible, had advanced alleged loans violating Section 186 of the Companies Act, creating a contrived situation of debt and default through collusion with the Corporate Debtor's promoters. The NCLAT dismissed the appeal, holding the findings of fraudulent CIRP initiation were justified based on the totality of circumstances.
