Approval of Resolution Plan - Haldiram Fincap Private Limited

National Company Law Tribunal25 August 2026

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The Adjudicating Authority is bound to defer to the commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors; it has no jurisdiction to analyse or evaluate the CoC's decision to approve a resolution plan that has been approved with the requisite voting share after consideration of feasibility and viability. A resolution plan whose value is lower than the liquidation value is not, for that reason alone, liable to be rejected, since neither the Code nor the Regulations requires the resolution applicant's bid to match the liquidation value, and the valuation exercise serves only to assist the CoC in its decision. Where the resolution professional has satisfied himself with the valuation reports and placed them before the CoC, and the CoC has approved the plan in exercise of its commercial wisdom, the Adjudicating Authority may place reliance on that commercial wisdom and on the due diligence exercised by the resolution professional under Section 31 in approving the plan.

1. This the present application (“Application”) is being filed by the Applicant i.e. the Resolution Professional (“RP”) of M/s Haldiram Fincap Private Limited (“Corporate Debtor”) under section 30(6) read with r/w Section 31(1) and Regulation 39(4) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process For Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016 (“CIRP Regulation”) for the approval of the Resolution Plan (or “Plan”) for Corporate Debtor, submitted by Respondent No. 1, the Consortium of Vaibhav Aggarwal & Sharad Aggarwal, through its lead member Vaibhav Aggarwal, Successful Resolution Applicant (“SRA”) as approved by the Committee of Creditors (“CoC”) of the Corporate Debtor in its 17th CoC Meeting dated 20.01.2026 with 100% voting in favor. 2. BACKGROUND OF THE CORPORATE DEBTOR: The Corporate Debtor, Haldiram Fincap Private Limited, was incorporated on 24.06.1994, as a Private Company (Non-govt. Company) having CIN: U74899DL1994PTC059829 under the Companies Act, 1956, with the Registrar of Companies, NCT of Delhi and Haryana. The Authorized Capital of the Company is Rs. 10,000,000 and its paid up capital is Rs. 4,950,200.

As per the records of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), the last available financials of the company are as on 31.03.2021 and the last annual general meeting of the company was held I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 Date of Order: 25.08.2026 on 30.11.2021. The Registered Address of the Corporate Debtor is at Shop no. AG -32, Shalimar Bagh, Delhi North, Delhi 110088. The primary business focus of Corporate Debtor lies in the domain of non-banking financial services, with a particular emphasis on providing secured and unsecured loans, financing small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and facilitating credit for individuals and businesses in the underserved and emerging credit segments. 3. FACTUAL MATRIX: 3.1. It is submitted that an application under Section 9 of the Code was filed by the Operational Creditor, i.e., Sunil Sachdeva, against the Corporate Debtor, i.e., Haldiram Fincap Private Limited, and the said application was admitted vide order dated 14.02.2023, passed by this Adjudicating Authority, and a moratorium was declared. Mr. Prabhakar Kumar was appointed as an Interim Resolution Professional who was subsequently appointed as the Resolution Professional.

3.2. Aggrieved by the order dated 14.02.2023, an appeal being Company Appeal (AT) (Insolvency) No. 307/2023, Vaibhav Aggarwal v. Sunil Sachdeva & Anr., was preferred before the Hon’ble National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (“NCLAT”). During the pendency of the appeal, the Hon’ble NCLAT, vide interim order dated 16.03.2023, directed that no further steps be taken pursuant to the order dated 14.02.2023 in the CIRP of the Corporate Debtor. Consequently, the CIRP remained stayed and the constitution/functioning of the CoC could not progress. The effect of the stay was also noted by this Hon’ble Tribunal in its order dated 31.03.2023, wherein it directed that the CoC should not proceed further in view of the NCLAT’s order. 3.3. The aforesaid appeal was ultimately decided by the Hon’ble NCLAT on 02.07.2024. The Hon’ble NCLAT examined, inter alia, whether the operational debt claimed by the Operational Creditor had become due and payable and whether any genuine pre-existing dispute existed between the parties. The Hon’ble NCLAT held that the operational debt

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 was due and payable, that the requisite default had occurred and that no real or substantial pre-existing dispute existed which could defeat the Section 9 application. The Hon’ble NCLAT accordingly found no error in the admission of the Section 9 application and initiation of CIRP. 3.4. Consequently, the Hon’ble NCLAT vacated the interim stay granted on 16.03.2023, dismissed the appeal. The Hon’ble NCLAT further directed the IRP to forthwith constitute the CoC and proceed with the CIRP of the Corporate Debtor in accordance with law. 3.5. In view of the aforesaid judgment, the CIRP recommenced. Since the CIRP had remained stayed for the period from 16.03.2023 to 02.07.2024, the RP filed I.A. No. 3441/2024 seeking exclusion of the said period from computation of the CIRP period. This Hon’ble Tribunal, vide order dated 09.07.2024, allowed the application and excluded 474 days for the purposes of computation of the CIRP period. 3.6. Thereafter, the IRP/RP took steps to revive and continue the CIRP. Since the earlier public announcement in Form-A dated 16.02.2023 had been followed by a prolonged stay of approximately 15 months, and the IRP did not have complete financial records of the Corporate Debtor owing to non-cooperation of the suspended management, a corrigendum dated 05.07.2024 was published in Financial Express (English) and Jansatta (Hindi), informing the general public regarding vacation of stay and continuation of the CIRP and providing an opportunity to prospective creditors to submit claims. 3.7. Pursuant thereto, two additional claims were received, duly verified and provisionally admitted, resulting in reconstitution of the CoC. The RP filed I.A. No. 3696/2024 seeking to take the reconstituted CoC and updated list of creditors on record. The reconstitution was subsequently taken on record by this Hon’ble Tribunal. 3.8. The CIRP was further affected by proceedings initiated by Mr. Sunil Sachdeva challenging the corrigendum and subsequent reconstitution of the CoC by filing I.A. No. 4009/2024. The said application was ultimately

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 disposed of by this Hon’ble Tribunal vide order dated 30.06.2025, whereby the validity of the reconstitution of the CoC was upheld. Appeals against the said order were thereafter preferred before the Hon’ble NCLAT by Mr. Sunil Sachdeva and by the RP on limited observations made against the RP, which is pending adjudication and no stay has been granted by the Hon’ble NCLAT in the said proceedings.

4. COLLATION OF CLAIMS BY THE RESOLUTION PROFESSIONAL:

The CoC also discussed the settlement entered into between the suspended Directors and the CoC members pursuant to the mediation proceedings and the order dated 11.08.2025 passed by the Delhi High Court. The CoC members took the position that, in view of the settlement, placing the Resolution Plans before the CoC was not required and that the RP was required to proceed in terms of the directions of the Delhi High Court. 5.15. During the 15th CoC Meeting dated 28.11.2025, the settlement proposed by the suspended Directors was discussed in detail.

He further undertook to submit an affidavit confirming payment of all creditors, including CIRP expenses, by 29.11.2025. The RP thereafter placed resolutions seeking approval for filing an application for withdrawal of the CIRP on account of settlement. However, the CoC deferred voting on the proposal pending receipt of the I.A.

The RP was also advised to obtain legal vetting to confirm compliance of the Resolution Plan with the IBC, 2016. 5.19. The CoC also passed a resolution authorising the RP to seek a further extension of 90 days in the CIRP period, which was then due to expire on 18.12.2025 after considering the exclusion of 234 days. The CoC further considered authorisation for filing an application for withdrawal of CIRP on account of settlement, approval of the Resolution Plan submitted by the Consortium of Vaibhav Agarwal & Sharad Agarwal, and authorisation to invite fresh EoIs and issue another Form-G. Ultimately, the CoC advised that the Resolution Plan of the Consortium of Vaibhav Agarwal & Sharad Agarwal be proceeded with. 5.20.

1B. (i) Whether Application for approval of Resolution Plan filed within 180 days of CIRP initiation - NO (ii) Number of days beyond 180 days taken for filing application for resolution plan- 447-days(considering the_ 474-days exclusion granted by NCLT vide order dated 09.07.2024) (iii) Reasons for delay:- - CIRP was initiated on 14.02.2023. However, the Hon'ble NCLAT has granted a stay order in the CIRP, in an appeal filed by the suspended Directors of the CD against the CIRP adrnis ion order. The NCLAT granted stay vide its order dated 16.03.2023. The appeal was later dismissed and stay was vacated by the Hon'ble NCLAT vide its order dated 02.07.2024. So there has been initial stay for 474 days for which Hon'ble NCLT later granted exclusion. - Thereafter, the original petitioner, Mr. Sunil Sachdeva, who filed Section 9 petition for initiating CIRP has filed another IA 4009/2024 before the Hon'ble NCLT challenging a corrigendum published by the RP pursuant to vacation of stay of CIRP and informing the creditors regarding re-instatement of CIRP and inviting claims (as 90-days claim filing period in terms of CIRP Regulation was still valid.

In that IA 4009/2024, Mr. Sunil Sachdeva also alleged that RP cannot accept claims from new creditors who filed the claim after issuance of Corrigendum, challenging the inclusion of new members in CoC thereby virtually challenging the CoC Constitution itself. - The said IA 4009/2024 was filed in the month of July-August 2024 and the same was decided by the Hon'ble NCLT vide its order dated 30.06.2025 wherein NCLT upheld the filing of claims by new creditors, acceptance of their claim by RP and inclusion of new members in CoC, though deferring from the act of publication of corrigendum by RP. - During the pendency of the IA 4009/2024 (that was nearly about IO-months), the CoC preferred not to pass any resolution for approval of Invitation for Expression of Interest (IEoI), Information Memorandum (IM), Request for Resolution Plan (RFRP) and Evaluation Matrix which are most critical documents to conduct the CIRP. - Hence RP was not able to issue Form-G and invite EoI during the pendency of IA 4009/2024. Later on when the said IA was decided by Hon'ble NCLT, the RP has preferred an application seeking exclusion of 234-days during the pendency of that application.

The said exclusion application is sub-judice. - Further, in tem1s of Fom1-G published by the RP, the last date to submit Resolution Pan was 14.07.2025. However, upon receipt of request from PRA, the CoC allowed extension of 15-days to submit the Resolution Plan. - In the meantime the suspended Director went on to Delhi High Court too which led to I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 initiation of a Mediation Process wherein the CoC Members entered into a settlement with the suspended Director. Hon'ble Delhi HC vide order dated 11.06.2025 referred the parties to Mediation process before the Delhi HC Mediation and Conciliation Centre which culminated into a settlement between the parties and the same was further recorded in the order dated 11 .08.2025 of the Hon'ble Delhi HC and the Hon'ble Delhi HC further directed the RP and the CoC to take steps in tem1s of IBC expeditiously. However, that settlement agreement did not proposed any payment for the Operational Creditor and only provided settlement with the Financial Creditors hence the said Settlement Agreement was not proceeded with and CoC decided to move ahead with Resolution Plans only. - All these reasons contributed to delay in CIRP proceedings.

2. I hereby certify that- (i) that the said Resolution Plan complies with all the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (lBC/Code), the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016 (CIRP Regulations) and does not contravene any of the provisions of the law for the time being in force.

Although payment to employees ranks at No. 3 in the order of priority under Section 53 of the Code, the Resolution Applicant proposes 100% payment as a gesture of goodwill towards employees who have served the Corporate Debtor for a long period. In the absence of any claim or liability admitted by the Resolution Professional, the Resolution Applicant shall have no liability towards any additional employee dues or any other past dues of employees beyond the amount verified by the Resolution Professional. The Resolution Plan also assumes that no additional liability has accrued towards employees (other than workmen) between the Insolvency Commencement Date and the Effective Date.

The liquidation value payable to Operational Creditors has not been provided by the CoC/RP; however, the Resolution Applicant proposes to ensure payment at least equal to the liquidation value under Section 30(2)(b) read with Section 53 of the Code, and shall infuse such additional funds as may be required if the proposed payment falls below the liquidation value. All amounts payable to Operational Creditors shall be paid in priority to Financial Creditors in terms of Regulation 38(1). The Resolution Applicant assumes that no additional liability, other than towards employees and workmen, has accrued towards Operational Creditors between the Insolvency Commencement Date and the Effective Date. Upon approval of the Resolution Plan, all rights, entitlements, claims, demands and liabilities of Operational Creditors relating to any period prior to the Approval Date or arising from the acquisition of control by the Resolution Applicant, whether admitted or not, due or contingent, asserted or unasserted, crystallised or uncrystallised, known or unknown, disputed or undisputed, present or future, including principal, interest, damages, penalties, costs, charges and third-party

Claims pertaining to period prior to Effective Date The Resolution Applicant or the Corporate Debtor shall not be liable to meet or discharge any claim raised by any creditors in respect of amount which have been arisen to them prior to the approval of resolution plan by CoC, if such claims neither constitute "Insolvency Resolution Process Costs" nor have been admitted by the Resolution Professional till the Resolution Plan is approved by the Coe ('Excluded Claims"). Creditors of such excluded claims shall have no right of claims against the Resolution Applicant, Corporate Debtor, its directors or employees in respect of such excluded claims.

Right to Receivables Nothing in the Resolution Plan shall affect the right of the Corporate Debtor to recover any amounts due from any third party, including its related parties under Section 5(24) of the Code and I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 governmental/statutory authorities identified in the Information Memorandum, and no such recoverable amount shall be set off against any amount paid or any liability discharged, satisfied or extinguished under the Resolution Plan. Further, where any Secured Creditor, Unsecured Creditor, Operational Creditor, Government or Government body/undertaking dealt with under the Resolution Plan recovers any additional amount from a third party, including through any guarantee or other security issued by a third party in relation to the Corporate Debtor’s debts, whether or not such creditor had filed a claim before the IRP/RP and irrespective of the settlement provided under the Resolution Plan, such additional amount shall be refunded/paid to the Resolution Applicant.

Upon approval of the Resolution Plan, all creditors shall be deemed to have undertaken in favour of the Resolution Applicant to refund/pay any recoveries made in respect of the Corporate Debtor’s debts in excess of the amount provided under the Resolution Plan.

The requested entitlements are not conditions of the Resolution Plan, and denial of any such relief shall not affect the validity of the Plan. The Resolution Plan contains the detailed reliefs and concessions sought by the SRA under Clause 17, at Pages 43 to 46 of the Resolution Plan.

9. MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF THE PLAN 9.1. As per the Plan, the SRA submits that it is not disqualified under Section 29A of the Code.

10. DETAILS ON FRAUDULENT AND AVOIDANCE TRANSACTIONS

It is submitted by the SRA in Form H that no application in respect of any PUFE transaction is pending as on date against the suspended directors/promoters of the Corporate Debtor. Accordingly, no proceedings relating to avoidance transactions under Sections 43, 45, 47, 49, 50 or 66 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 are pending against the Corporate Debtor or its suspended directors/promoters before this Adjudicating Authority.

11. ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS:

11.1. We have heard the submissions of the Ld. Counsel for the Resolution Professional and perused the documents on record. 11.2. It is a matter of record that the CIRP for the Corporate Debtor, Regency World Consulting Limited, was initiated on a Section 9 Application filed

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 by an Operational Creditor, Sunil Sachdeva, as per the order dated 14.02.2023, passed by this Adjudicating Authority. 11.3. This Adjudicating Authority has relied upon the decision of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of Vallal RCK vs. M/s. Siva Industries and Holdings Limited and Others1, whereby the Hon’ble Apex Court has answered the question as to whether the Adjudicating Authority (NCLT) or the Appellate Authority (NCLAT) can sit in an appeal over the commercial wisdom of the CoC or not. We rely upon the following paragraphs: “21. This Court has consistently held that the commercial wisdom of the CoC has been given paramount status without any judicial intervention for ensuring the completion of the stated processes within the timelines prescribed by the IBC. It has been held that there is an intrinsic assumption that Financial Creditors are fully informed about the viability of the Corporate Debtor and the feasibility of the proposed resolution plan. They act on the basis of thorough examination of the proposed Resolution Plan and assessment made by their team of experts.” A reference in this respect could be made to the judgments of this Court in the cases of “K. Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank and Others, Committee of Creditors of Essar Steel India Limited through Authorised Signatory v. Satish Kumar Gupta and Others, Maharashtra Seamless Limited v. Padmanabhan Venkatesh and Others, Kalpraj Dharamshi and Another v. Kotak Investment Advisors Limited and Another and Jaypee Kensington Boulevard Apartments Welfare Association and Others v. NBCC (India) Limited and Others. 27. This Court has, time and again, emphasized the need or minimal judicial interference by the NCLAT and NCLT in the framework of IBC. We may refer to the recent observation of this Court made in the case of Arun Kumar Jagatramka v. Jindal Steel and Power Limited and Another: ….. “95. However, we do take this opportunity to offer a note of caution for NCLT and NCLAT, functioning as the adjudicatory authority and appellate authority under the IBC respectively, from judicially

1 Civil Appeal Nos. 1811 1812 of 2022

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 interfering in the framework envisaged under the IBC. As we have noted earlier in the judgment, the IBC was introduced in order to overhaul the insolvency and bankruptcy regime in India. As such, it is a carefully considered and well thought out piece of legislation which sought to shed away the practices of the past. The Legislature has also been working hard to ensure that the efficacy of this legislation remains robust by constantly amending it based on its experience. Consequently, the need for judicial intervention or innovation from NCLT and NCLAT should be kept at its bare minimum and should not disturb the foundational principles of the IBC” 11.4. In light of the above-quoted judgements, it is clear that the “Commercial wisdom of CoC” is given paramount status. This Adjudicating Authority is not endowed with the powers of jurisdiction or authority to analyse or evaluate the commercial decision of the CoC. The Resolution Plan submitted by Consortium of Vaibhav Agarwal and Sharad Agarwal, the SRA, which was approved by the CoC in its 17th CoC meeting convened on 20.01.2026 (concluded on 26.01.2026) by 100% voting share in respect of the CIRP of the Corporate Debtor after considering its feasibility and viability, this Adjudicating Authority cannot interfere in the same. 11.5. It is observed that the Plan Value is lower than the Liquidation Value. However, the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Maharashtra Seamless Limited v. Padmanabhan Venkatesh & Ors.2, has held that there is no statutory requirement under the Code or the Regulations that the bid of a Resolution Applicant must match the Liquidation Value. The Hon’ble Supreme Court further held that the valuation process is intended to assist the Committee of Creditors in taking a decision on the Resolution Plan and that the Adjudicating Authority ought to defer to the commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors rather than assess the Resolution Plan on the basis of quantitative analysis. In the present case, the Resolution Professional, having satisfied himself with the valuation reports, placed the same before the Committee of Creditors, which, in 2 Civil Appeal No. 4242 of 2019

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 exercise of its commercial wisdom, approved the Resolution Plan. Accordingly, this Adjudicating Authority places reliance upon the commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors and the due diligence exercised by the Resolution Professional while considering the Resolution Plan under Section 31 of the Code. 11.6. The Applicant/RP has filed a Compliance Certificate in the prescribed Form, i.e., Form-H as per the Resolution Plan in compliance with Regulation 39(4) of the CIRP Regulations. The Applicant/RP submits that the SRA is not disqualified under Section 29A of the Code to submit the Resolution Plan, as required by Regulation 39(1)(a) of the CIRP Regulations. A separate undertaking has also been submitted along with the EoI by the SRA, as mandated in terms of Regulation 39(1)(c) of the CIRP Regulations. 11.7. The present application has been filed with bonafide means, in the interest of justice and to advance the objectives of the Code.

12. ORDER:

12.1. In view of the above, we are of the considered opinion that the Interlocutory Application for approval of Resolution Plan i.e., I.A. (I.B.C) (PLAN)/ 13 (ND) 2026, is hereby allowed and the Resolution Plan of Rs. 2,54,82,952/- is approved. “Effective Date” means the date on which this Resolution Plan is approved by this Adjudicating Authority under Section 31 of the Code.

12.2. We reaffirm and direct that, in compliance with Regulation 38(2)(d) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016, the proceedings pertaining to Avoidance Transactions shall be pursued by the Monitoring Committee. Upon discharge of the Monitoring Professional, such proceedings shall be continued by the Financial Creditors or as otherwise decided by them. All expenses incurred in connection with the aforesaid proceedings shall be borne by the Financial Creditors. Any recovery

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 arising from such litigation shall be distributed to the Creditors in accordance with the waterfall mechanism prescribed under Section 53 of the IBC, 2016.

12.3. We direct that, in strict compliance with Regulation 38(2)(a) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016, the SRA shall implement the approved Resolution Plan within a period of 60 days from the Effective Date, i.e., the date of its approval by the Adjudicating Authority, as expressly affirmed by the SRA in the mandatory contents as provided under Regulation 38 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016 under the Resolution Plan.

12.4. The Resolution Plan is binding on the Corporate Debtor, its employees, members, creditors, including the Central Government, any State Government or any local authority to whom a debt in respect of the payment of dues arising under any law for the time being in force is due, guarantors and other stakeholders involved in the Resolution Plan, so that the revival of the Corporate Debtor Company shall come into force with immediate effect.

12.5. The Moratorium imposed under Section 14 of the Code shall cease to have effect from the date of this order.

12.6. The reliefs, concessions and waivers sought by the SRA will be dealt with strictly as per law taking into consideration the decision of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of Embassy Property Development Private Limited v. State of Karnataka & Ors.3, this Adjudicating Authority is not inclined to granting any relief prayed for except that is provided in the case itself and direct the SRA to file necessary application before the necessary forum/ authority in order to avail the necessary

3 Civil Appeal No. 9170 of 2019

I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019 relief and concessions, in accordance with respective laws.

The relevant part of the judgement is reproduced below: "39. Another important aspect is that under Section 25 (2) (b) of IBC, 2016, the resolution professional is obliged to represent and art on behalf of the corporate debtor with third parties and exercise rights for the benefit of the corporate debtor in judicial, quasi-judicial and arbitration proceedings. Section 25(1) and 25(2)(b) reads as follows: "25. Duties of resolution professional - (1) It shall be the duty of the resolution professional to preserve and protect the assets of the corporate debtor, including the continued business operations of the corporate debtor. (2) For the purposes of sub-section (1), the resolution professional shall undertake the following actions:- (a)…………. (b) represent and act on behalf of the corporate debtor with third parties, exercise rights for the benefit of the corporate debtor in judicial, quasi judicial and arbitration proceedings." This shows that wherever the corporate debtor has to exercise rights in judicial, quasi judicial proceedings, the resolution professional cannot short-circuit the same and bring a claim before NCLT taking advantage of Section 60(5). 40. Therefore in the light of the statutory scheme as culled out from various provisions of the IBC, 2016 it is clear that wherever the corporate debtor has to exercise a right that falls outside the purview of the IBC, 2016 especially in the realm of the public law, they cannot, through the resolution professional, take a bypass and go before NCLT for the enforcement of such a right." 12.7. As far as the question of granting time to comply with the statutory obligations/seeking sanctions from governmental authorities is concerned, the SRA is directed to do the same within one year as prescribed under Section 31(4) of the Code. 12.8. In case of non-compliance of this order or withdrawal of the Resolution Plan within the stipulated time, in addition to other consequences which follow under law, the CoC shall forfeit the EMD already paid by the SRA.

12.9. Further from the effective date and until the transfer date, a 3-member Monitoring Committee or Managing Committee is to be constituted. The I.A. (IBC) (Plan) 13(ND)2026 IN IB-2768(ND)/2019

Committee shall consist of one representative of the SRA, one representative of the CoC and the RP. The Monitoring Committee shall endeavour to complete the plan implementation within the time specified in the Resolution Plan from the date of this Order.

12.10. The RP shall submit the records collected during the commencement of the CIRP to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (“IBBI”) for their record.

12.11. Liberty is hereby granted for moving appropriate application(s), if required in connection with the implementation of this Resolution Plan.

12.12. A copy of this Order shall be filed by the RP with the Registrar of Companies (RoC), NCT of Delhi & Haryana. The Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association shall accordingly be amended and filed with the RoC, for information and record. The SRA, for effective implementation of the Plan, shall obtain all necessary approvals, under any law for the time being in force, within such period as may be prescribed.

12.13.
