Corporate Debt Resolution Shields Restructured Company from Post-Approval Tax Demands Under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code

April 25, 2025

Case Laws     GST     HC

HC ruled that additional tax demands against the corporate debtor (CD) after NCLT's Resolution Plan approval are invalid. The court held that post-resolution plan claims by creditors would impede the implementation of the approved restructuring process. Specifically, assessment orders and demand notices for tax years 2012-13, 2013-14, and 2017-2018 were quashed. The fundamental legal principle affirmed is that once an NCLT-approved Resolution Plan is in place, subsequent creditor claims are precluded to ensure a clean slate for corporate revival. The petition was consequently allowed, protecting the integrity of the insolvency resolution mechanism under the IBC.
