Corporate Directors Illegally Withdraw Funds During Insolvency Moratorium, Ordered to Repay Full Amount with Interest

April 26, 2025

Case Laws     IBC     AT

NCLAT affirmed the lower tribunal's order regarding unauthorized withdrawal of Rs. 32 lakhs from corporate debtor's account during moratorium period under Section 14 of IBC. The appellants demonstrated persistent non-cooperation and brazen disobedience of prior orders. The tribunal held that the withdrawal violated IBC provisions, rendering the suspended directors liable to deposit the entire amount with 12% per annum interest into the liquidation estate. The appeal was summarily dismissed as lacking substantive legal merit, with the order becoming final due to non-challenge of previous judicial determinations.
