Approval of Resolution Plan - SIBRI Traders Private Limited

National Company Law Tribunal6 May 2026

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The Adjudicating Authority's scope of review of a resolution plan approved by the Committee of Creditors under Section 31(1) is confined to whether the plan satisfies the requirements of Section 30(2) of the Code (payment of insolvency resolution process costs in priority, payment of operational creditors' debts in the prescribed manner, payment of dissenting financial creditors, management of the corporate debtor after approval, implementation and supervision, and non-contravention of law in force), and the plan's conformity with Regulations 37 and 38 of the CIRP Regulations; it may not interfere with the commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors on feasibility, viability, or value maximisation. Where the Committee of Creditors has approved a resolution plan by a vote of not less than 66% of the voting share of financial creditors after considering its feasibility and viability, and the Adjudicating Authority finds the Section 30(2) requirements met, it must approve the plan under Section 31(1), which then binds the corporate debtor, its employees, members, creditors, guarantors, statutory authorities and other stakeholders.

ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS 36. After hearing the submissions made by the Ld. Counsel for the Resolution Professional and the CoC, and perusing the record, we find that the Resolution Plan of the SRA has been approved by the CoC with 100% voting share. The CoC members as per the provisions of Regulation 39(3), voted after evaluation of plan as per an Evaluation Matrix as placed before them and making deliberation on the feasibility and viability of each resolution plan for the revival of the Corporate Debtor. From the documents presented before us by the Ld. Counsels of RP and CoC, it has been shown to us that all the compliances by SRA has been examined by the RP for making the plan effective after approval by this Bench, for which necessary details have been submitted by RP in Form H as have already been discussed in para no. 37 of this order.

37. On perusal of the documents on record, we are also satisfied that the Resolution Plan is in accordance with sections 30 and 31 of the IBC and also complies with regulations 38 and 39 of the CIRP Regulations.

38. As regards to complying with the law laid down in various judicial pronouncements of the Hon’ble Supreme Court on the scope of IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 approval of the Resolution Plan by the NCLT, we deem it appropriate to refer to some of the landmark judgments as under:

i) Judgment of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of K. Sashidhar –Vs– Indian Overseas Bank (2019) 12 SCC 150, wherein in para 19 and 62 it is held as follows;

“19....... In the present case, however, our focus must be on the dispensation governing the process of approval or rejection of resolution plan by the CoC. The CoC is called upon to consider the resolution plan under Section 30(4) of the I&B Code after it is verified and vetted by the resolution professional as being compliant with all the statutory requirements specified in Section 30(2). 62. .........In the present case, however, we are concerned with the provisions of I&B Code dealing with the resolution process. The dispensation provided in the I&B Code is entirely different. In terms of Section 30 of the I&B Code, the decision is taken collectively after due negotiations between the financial creditors who are constituents of the CoC and they express their opinion on the proposed resolution plan in the form of votes, as per their voting share. In the meeting of the CoC, the proposed resolution plan is placed for discussion and after full interaction in the presence of all concerned and the IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024

Resolution Professional, the constituents of the CoC finally proceed to exercise their option (business/commercial decision) to approve or not to approve the proposed resolution plan. In such a case, non-recording of reasons would not per-se vitiate the collective decision of the financial creditors. The legislature has not envisaged challenge to the “commercial/business decision” of the financial creditors taken collectively or for that matter their individual opinion, as the case may be, on this count.” ii) Further the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of K. Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank and Ors. (2019) 12 SCC 150 has lucidly delineated the scope and interference of the Adjudicating Authority in the process of approval of the Resolution Plan and held as follows; “55. Whereas, the discretion of the adjudicating authority (NCLT) is circumscribed by Section 31 limited to scrutiny of the resolution plan “as approved” by the requisite per cent of voting share of financial creditors. Even in that enquiry, the grounds on which the adjudicating authority can reject the resolution plan is in reference to matters specified in Section 30(2), when the resolution plan does not conform to the stated requirements. Reverting to Section 30(2), the enquiry to be done is in respect of whether the resolution plan provides: (i) the payment of insolvency resolution process costs in a specified

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 manner in priority to the repayment of other debts of the corporate debtor, (ii) the repayment of the debts of operational creditors in prescribed manner, (iii) the management of the affairs of the corporate debtor, (iv) the implementation and supervision of the resolution plan, (v) does not contravene any of the provisions of the law for the time being in force, (vi) conforms to such other requirements as may be specified by the Board. The Board referred to is established under Section 188 of the I&B Code. The powers and functions of the Board have been delineated in Section 196 of the I&B Code. None of the specified functions of the Board, directly or indirectly, pertain to regulating the manner in which the financial creditors ought to or ought not to exercise their commercial wisdom during the voting on the resolution plan under Section 30(4) of the I&B Code. The subjective satisfaction of the financial creditors at the time of voting is bound to be a mixed baggage of variety of factors. To wit, the feasibility and viability of the proposed resolution plan and including their perceptions about the general capability of the resolution applicant to translate the projected plan into a reality. The resolution applicant may have given projections backed by normative data but still in the opinion of the dissenting financial creditors, it would not be free from being speculative.

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024

These aspects are completely within the domain of the financial creditors who are called upon to vote on the resolution plan under Section 30(4) of the I&B Code. 58. Indubitably, the inquiry in such an appeal would be limited to the power exercisable by the resolution professional under Section 30(2) of the I&B Code or, at best, by the adjudicating authority (NCLT) under Section 31(2) read with Section 31(1) of the I&B Code. No other inquiry would be permissible. Further, the jurisdiction bestowed upon the appellate authority (NCLAT) is also expressly circumscribed. It can examine the challenge only in relation to the grounds specified in Section 61(3) of the I&B Code, which is limited to matters “other than” enquiry into the autonomy or commercial wisdom of the dissenting financial creditors. Thus, the prescribed authorities (NCLT/NCLAT) have been endowed with limited jurisdiction as specified in the I&B Code and not to act as a court of equity or exercise plenary powers.” (emphasis supplied) iii) Further, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in the matter of Committee of Creditors of Essar Steels –Vs– Satish Kumar Gupta &Ors. in Civil Appeal No. 8766 – 67 of 2019 at para 42, has held as follows;

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 “42. .........Thus, it is clear that the limited judicial review available, which can in no circumstance trespass upon a business decision of the majority of the Committee of Creditors, has to be within the four corners of Section 30(2) of the Code, insofar as the Adjudicating Authority is concerned, and Section 32 read with Section 61(3) of the Code, insofar as the Appellate Tribunal is concerned, the parameters of such review having been clearly laid down in K. Sashidhar (supra).” iv) Also, the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of Committee of Creditors of Essar Steel India Limited v. Satish Kumar Gupta and Ors. (2020) 8 SCC 531, after referring to the decision in K. Sashidhar (supra), has held as follows;

“73. There is no doubt whatsoever that the ultimate discretion of what to pay and how much to pay each class or sub-class of creditors is with the Committee of Creditors, but, the decision of such Committee must reflect the fact that it has taken into account maximising the value of the assets of the corporate debtor and the fact that it has adequately balanced the interests of all stakeholders including operational creditors. This being the case, judicial review of the Adjudicating Authority that the resolution plan as approved by the Committee of Creditors has met the requirements referred to in Section 30(2) would

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 include judicial review that is mentioned in Section 30(2)(e), as the provisions of the Code are also provisions of law for the time being in force. Thus, while the Adjudicating Authority cannot interfere on merits with the commercial decision taken by the Committee of Creditors, the limited judicial review available is to see that the Committee of Creditors has taken into account the fact that the corporate debtor needs to keep going as a going concern during the insolvency resolution process; that it needs to maximise the value of its assets; and that the interests of all stakeholders including operational creditors has been taken care of. If the Adjudicating Authority finds, on a given set of facts, that the aforesaid parameters have not been kept in view, it may send a resolution plan back to the Committee of Creditors to re-submit such plan after satisfying the aforesaid parameters. The reasons given by the Committee of Creditors while approving a resolution plan may thus be looked at by the Adjudicating Authority only from this point of view, and once it is satisfied that the Committee of Creditors has paid attention to these key features, it must then pass the resolution plan, other things being equal.” (emphasis supplied) v) The Hon’ble Supreme Court in its recent decision in Jaypee Kensington Boulevard Apartments Welfare Association & Ors.

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 v. NBCC (India) Ltd. &Ors in Civil Appeal no. 3395 of 2020, dated 24.03.2021, has held as follows;

“76. The expositions aforesaid make it clear that the decision as to whether corporate debtor should continue as a going concern or should be liquidated is essentially a business decision; and in the scheme of IBC, this decision has been left to the Committee of Creditors, comprising of the financial creditors. Differently put, in regard to the insolvency resolution, the decision as to whether a particular resolution plan is to be accepted or not is ultimately in the hands of the Committee of Creditors; and even in such a decision making process, a resolution plan cannot be taken as approved if the same is not approved by votes of at least 66% of the voting share of financial creditors. Thus, broadly put, a resolution plan is approved only when the collective commercial wisdom of the financial creditors, having at least 2/3rd majority of voting share in the Committee of Creditors, stands in its favour. 77. In the scheme of IBC, where approval of resolution plan is exclusively in the domain of the commercial wisdom of CoC, the scope of judicial review is correspondingly circumscribed by the provisions contained in Section 31 as regards

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 approval of the Adjudicating Authority and in Section 32 read with Section 61 as regards the scope of appeal against the order of approval. 77.1. Such limitations on judicial review have been duly underscored by this Court in the decisions above-referred, where it has been laid down in explicit terms that the powers of the Adjudicating Authority dealing with the resolution plan do not extend to examine the correctness or otherwise of the commercial wisdom exercised by the CoC. The limited judicial review available to Adjudicating Authority lies within the four corners of Section 30(2) of the Code, which would essentially be to examine that the resolution plan does not contravene any of the provisions of law for the time being in force, it conforms to such other requirements as may be specified by the Board, and it provides for: (a) payment of insolvency resolution process costs in priority; (b) payment of debts of operational creditors; (c) payment of debts of dissenting financial creditors; (d) for management of affairs of corporate debtor after approval of the resolution plan; and (e) implementation and supervision of the resolution plan.

77.2. The limitations on the scope of judicial review are reinforced by the limited ground provided for an appeal against an order approving a resolution plan, namely, if the plan is in contravention of the IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 provisions of any law for the time being in force; or there has been material irregularity in exercise of the powers by the resolution professional during the corporate insolvency resolution period; or the debts owed to the operational creditors have not been provided for; or the insolvency resolution process costs have not been provided for repayment in priority; or the resolution plan does not comply with any other criteria specified by the Board 77.6.1. The assessment about maximisation of the value of assets, in the scheme of the Code, would always be subjective in nature and the question, as to whether a particular resolution plan and its propositions are leading to maximisation of value of assets or not, would be the matter of enquiry and assessment of the Committee of Creditors alone. When the Committee of Creditors takes the decision in its commercial wisdom and by the requisite majority; and there is no valid reason in law to question the decision so taken by the Committee of Creditors, the adjudicatory process, whether by the Adjudicating Authority or the Appellate Authority, cannot enter into any quantitative analysis to adjudge as to whether the prescription of the resolution plan results in maximisation of the value of assets or not.

The generalised submissions and objections made in relation to this aspect of value maximisation do not, by themselves, make out a case of interference in the IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 decision taken by the Committee of Creditors in its commercial wisdom. 78. To put in a nutshell, the Adjudicating Authority has limited jurisdiction in the matter of approval of a resolution plan, which is well defined and circumscribed by Sections 30(2) and 31 of the Code read with the parameters delineated by this Court in the decisions above referred. The jurisdiction of the Appellate Authority is also circumscribed by the limited grounds of appeal provided in Section 61 of the Code. In the adjudicatory process concerning a resolution plan under IBC, there is no scope for interference with the commercial aspects of the decision of the CoC; and there is no scope for substituting any commercial term of the resolution plan approved by the CoC. Within its limited jurisdiction, if the Adjudicating Authority or the Appellate Authority, as the case may be, would find any shortcoming in the resolution plan vis-à-vis the specified parameters, it would only send the resolution plan back to the Committee of Creditors, for re-submission after satisfying the parameters delineated by Code and exposited by this Court.” vi) The Hon’ble Supreme Court in a recent judgment in case of Piramal Capital & Housing Finance Ltd. v. 63 Moons Technologies Ltd., 2025 SCC On Line SC 690, dated 01-04-

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024

2025 has further upheld the primacy of commercial wisdom of the CoC in approving a resolution plan with only a limited jurisdiction of judicial review available to the NCLT or NCLAT as held in this judgment as under :

(i) Mandatory Requirements of Section 30(2) of the IBC and Regulation 38 of Regulations, 2016 62. 62. After having elaborated upon the Avoidance Applications, let us see what are the mandatory requirements, a Resolution Professional is required to confirm on the receipt of the RPs (resolution plans) submitted by the PRAs. As per sub-section (1) of Section 30, a RA may submit a RP along with an affidavit stating that he is eligible under Section 29(A), to the Resolution Professional prepared on the basis of the information memorandum. On the receipt of RPs from the eligible RAs, the Resolution Professional has to examine each RP to confirm that each RP provides for the payment of Insolvency Resolution Process cost in the manner specified by the Board in priority to the payment of other debts of the CD, and provides for the payment of debts of operational creditors in such manner as may be prescribed by the Board, as required under sub-section (2) of Section 30. The Resolution Professional has also to confirm that each RP provides for the management of the affairs of CD

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 after the approval of the RP; the implementation and supervision of the RP; and also that the plan does not contravene any of the provisions of the law for the time being in force, and such other requirements specified by the Board. The other mandatory contents of a RP have been specified in Regulation 38 of the Regulations, 2016. 63. The Resolution Professional, in view of sub-section (3) of Section 30 has to present to the CoC for its approval such RPs which confirm the conditions referred to in sub-section (2) thereof. Sub-Section (4) of Section 30 states that the CoC may approve the RP by a vote of not less than 66% of the voting share of the Financial Creditors, after considering its feasibility and viability, the manner of distribution proposed, which may take into account the order of priority amongst Creditors as laid down in subsection (1) of Section 53, including the priority and value of the security interest of a secured creditor, and such other requirements as may be specified by the Board. 64. The Resolution Professional then has to submit the RP as approved by the requisite number of votes of CoC to the Adjudicating Authority. In view of subsection (1) of Section 31, if the Adjudicating Authority is satisfied that the RP approved by the CoC under sub-section (4) of Section 30 meets the requirements as referred to in sub-section (2) of IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024

Section 30, it shall by an order approve the RP, which shall be binding on the CD and its employees, members, creditors, statutory authorities, guarantors and stakeholders involved in the RP. Where the Adjudicating Authority is satisfied that the RP does not confirm to the requirements referred to in sub-section (1) of Section 31, it may, by an order reject the RP. 65.Thus, the entire process right from the submission of RPs by the PRAs till the final approval/rejection of the Plan by the Adjudicating Authority has been duly prescribed, which is mandatory in nature. If there is any non-compliance of the mandatory requirements stated in Section 30(2) of IBC, read with Regulation 38 of the Regulations, 2016, the Adjudicating Authority is empowered to reject the plan as envisaged in sub-section (2) of Section 31. If however, the plan approved by the CoC as per Section 30(4), meets with the requirements under Section 30(2), the Adjudicating Authority has to approve such plan under Section 31(1), which would be binding to all the stakeholders as stated therein. (iv) Maximization of the value of the assets of the Corporate Debtor 66. Much emphasis was laid, during the course of the arguments, for the maximization of the value of the assets of the CD.

It hardly needs to be emphasized that IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 in CIRP, the role of the CoC is that of a protagonist, who takes the key decisions in its commercial wisdom and also takes the consequences thereof. It cannot be gainsaid that the decisions of CoC must reflect the fact that it has taken into account the maximization of the value of the assets of the CD, and that the interest of all the stakeholders has been adequately balanced. However, “What is maximization of the assets” has not been defined in the Code though stated in the Preamble. Of course, it has been referred in Regulation 37 of the Regulations, 2016, which states that RPs shall provide for the measures as may be necessary for insolvency resolution of the CD, for maximization of the value of its assets, which may include the measures as provided in Paras (a) to (l) thereof. Since the Preamble of IBC envisages “maximization of the value of the assets of the Corporate Debtor,” and to promote entrepreneurship, the measures necessary for maximization of assets stated in Regulation 37, amongst others, will have to be taken into consideration by the CoC while considering the proposed RPs for approval.

67. As observed in K. Sashidhar (supra), the Financial Creditors forming CoC, act on the basis of thorough examination of the proposed RPs and the assessment made by their team of experts. The entire process has to be carried out in an absolutely transparent manner, and each and every aspect

IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 relating to the RP, and more particularly its financial layout and the measures proposed for maximization of the value of the assets of the CD, has to be placed before the CoC. The CoC, if after considering such measures for maximization of the value of the assets of the CD as proposed by the RA in the RP submitted by it, and considering the feasibility, viability and such other requirements as mandated in the IBC and in the Regulations, 2016, approves the plan with the requisite number of votes as required under Section 30(4), after exercising its commercial wisdom, then the scope of judicial review by the Adjudicating Authority under Section 31 will be limited only to the extent of satisfying itself about the compliance of the requirements of Section 30(2). The judicial review by the Appellate Authority under Section 61 in the appeal against the order of Adjudicating Authority approving the plan, is further limited to the grounds mentioned in Paras (i) to (v) specified in subsection (3) of Section 61. [Emphasis Supplied] 39. From the above judgments, it is amply clear that after a resolution plan is approved by the CoC by a majority vote with requisite percentage of Vote applying their commercial wisdom by deliberating on all the financial aspects including value maximisation and considering feasibility and viability of each resolution plan and IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 the entire process is carried out by the RP in an absolutely transparent manner, the Adjudicating Authority has limited jurisdiction in the matter of approval of a resolution plan, which is well defined and circumscribed by Sections 30(2) and 31 of the Code. In the present case, no such violation has been brought to our notice. Therefore, we find the plan of SRA/ Kinetic Trusts Limited before us in conformity with the law laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in its various judgments.

ORDER 40. Subject to our observations and findings made in this Order while discussing details of plans, the Resolution Plan of SRA/Kinetic Trust Limited as filed before us in the present IA, is hereby APPROVED. The Resolution Plan annexed with the present IA in Annexure 11(Colly) shall form the part of this Order.

41. In view of the provision of Section 31(1), the Resolution Plan is binding on the Corporate Debtor and its employees, members, creditors and other stakeholders involved in the Resolution Plan so that revival of the Debtor Company shall come into force with immediate effect. The Resolution Plan shall also be binding on the Central Government, any concerned State Government or any Local Authority.

43. The above-constituted monitoring committee shall supervise the implementation of the Resolution Plan approved by us vide this order and shall take necessary steps to ensure the successful implementation of this plan in terms of Para 10.1.2 of the Resolution Plan by the SRA.

44. With regard to CIRP Costs, CIRP costs should be paid in full as approved by the CoC and in priority to any other Creditor of the Corporate Debtor. Moreover, during the course of hearing on 25.03.2026, a clarification was also sought as to the amount to be paid towards the CIRP costs/fees is in addition to the Resolution plan amount of Rs. 1 Crore and 10 lakhs to be paid to creditors. The SRA has filed an affidavit vide diary no. 205 dated 27.01.2026 to clarify on this point and states as follows:

“That it is respectfully submitted that the amount towards CIRP Cost/fees is over and above the Resolution Plan amount of Rs. 1,10,00,000/- and shall be paid separately by the SRA in IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 accordance with the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.”

45. The Monitoring Committee shall also file monthly reports on the progress of the implementation of the Resolution Plan.

46. In case of non-compliance with this order or withdrawal of the Resolution Plan, the CoC shall forfeit the performance security of Rs. 44 crores already paid by the Successful Resolution Applicant.

47. As far as the question of granting time to comply with the statutory obligations/seeking sanctions from governmental authorities is concerned, the Resolution Applicant is directed to do the same within one year as prescribed under section 31(4) of the Code.

48. The Moratorium imposed under section 14 shall cease to have effect from the date of this order.

49. In terms of Para 14(e) of the Resolution Plan as affirmed by the CoC, we order that RP shall pursue the PUFE Applications under sections 43,44,45,49,50, and 66 of the Code and if adjudicated by allowing the same by the Adjudicating Authority, any recovery made from the same is to be shared to the Financial Creditor of the Corporate Debtor. During the course of hearing on 25.03.2026, RP present in person has undertaken to pursue the PUFE applications at his own costs and IA (PLAN) NO.10/2025 IN CP (IB) NO.143/ALD/2024 would be adjusted against the amount realised from the proceedings and surplus amount shall be distributed to Financial Creditor. The relevant part of the order passed on 25.03.2026 is reproduced as under:

“4. At a first glance, there does not seems to be any stipulation as to how the cost to be incurred in pursuing these applications by the RP, are to be met. The RP, who is present in person states that as per this stipulation, he will pursue the PUFE application and also would not be charging any fees on account of pursuing the PUFE applications and all the cost incurred by him on pursing these applications would be met by him and would be adjusted against the amount realised from the proceedings and surplus amount shall be distributed to Financial Creditors.” 50. We order on the Reliefs and concessions sought by the SRA under Para 9 of its resolution plan as under:
