Approval of Resolution Plan - Siddhi Raj Housing Projects Private Limited

National Company Law Tribunal19 June 2026

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The Adjudicating Authority's scrutiny of a resolution plan under Section 31 is confined to the matters specified in Section 30(2) of the Code and to whether the plan, as approved by the Committee of Creditors with the requisite voting share, conforms to those requirements; within that enquiry the commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors is given paramount weight and the Authority does not substitute its own view of the plan's merits. Where the Committee of Creditors has approved a resolution plan by the requisite voting share, the Resolution Professional is obliged under Section 30(6) to submit it to the Adjudicating Authority, which must satisfy itself that the plan meets the requirements of Section 30(2) and the applicable regulations before approving it. On approval of a resolution plan, claims which are not part of the approved plan stand extinguished, and no person may initiate or continue proceedings in respect of such a claim. Reliefs, concessions or exemptions not expressly granted in the approval order are not to be construed as granted, and reliefs sought that fall outside the scope of Sections 31(1) and 32A are not granted.

50. On perusal of Form-H, it is seen that the Resolution Plan is in compliance with the mandatory compliances as stipulated under Section 30(2) of the Code. The Successful Resolution Applicant has submitted an Affidavit dated 10.01.2024, which is attached as ‘Annexure 44’ with the Due Diligence certificate by the Resolution Professional dated 11.12.2025, which is attached as ‘Annexure 45’ of the application stating that Resolution Applicant nor any other person who is a connected person (as defined under the IBC) are ineligible under Section 29 A of the Code.

53. In K Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank & Others (2019) 12 SCC 150, the Hon’ble Apex Court held that if the CoC had approved the Resolution Plan by requisite percent of voting share, then as per section 30(6) of the Code, it is imperative for the Resolution Professional to submit the same to the Adjudicating Authority (NCLT). On receipt of such a proposal, the Adjudicating Authority is required to satisfy itself that the Resolution Plan, as approved by CoC, meets the requirements specified in Section 30(2). The Hon’ble Apex Court further observed that the role of the NCLT is ‘no more and no less’. The Hon’ble Apex Court further held that the discretion of the Adjudicating Authority is circumscribed by Section 31 and is limited to scrutiny of the Resolution Plan “as approved” by the requisite percent 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.

54. In view of the law laid down by Hon’ble Supreme Court, the commercial wisdom of the COC is to be given paramount importance for approval / rejection of the resolution plan. As the Resolution Plan meets the requirements of the Code and the IBBI (CIRP) Regulations, 2016 the same needs to be approved. Accordingly, the Resolution Plan is approved with the following directions:

i. The Resolution Plan submitted by Mantra Properties and Developers Pvt Ltd is hereby approved. It shall become effective from this date and shall form part of this order.

ii. The Monitoring Agency shall supervise the implementation of the Resolution Plan and shall review operational performance of the Said corporate debtor.

iii. The Resolution Professional is further directed to handover all records, premises / documents to the Resolution Applicant to finalise further line of action required for starting of the operation as contemplated under the Resolution Plan. The Resolution Applicant shall have access to all the records premises / documents through Resolution Professional to finalise further line of action required for starting of the operations.

iv. As per the Resolution Plan, extinguishment of existing shares of the said corporate debtor, allotment of shares to the Resolution Applicant and to New Investor and reduction of share capital do not require the consent of shareholders as required under the Companies Act or any other authority for implementation of the Resolution Plan.

v. The aspect of reliefs and concessions are dealt herein under: a.

(PLAN) NO. 136 OF 2025 IN CP (IB) NO. 715 OF 2021 application for renewal, grant permissions, sanctions, consents, approvals, allowances, exemptions etc. b. Any exemption as sought for in relation to the payment of registration charges, stamp duty, taxes and fees arising out of the implementation of the Resolution Plan is not granted but the Resolution Applicant is at liberty to approach Competent Authorities for the exemptions if permitted under the law.

c.

It is hereby clarified that in terms of the Judgement of Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of Ghanshyam Mishra and Sons Private Limited Vs. Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company Limited (2021) 9 SCC 657, on the date of approval of the Resolution Plan by the Adjudicating Authority, all such claims which are not a part of Resolution Plan, shall stand extinguished and no person will be entitled to initiate or continue any proceedings in respect of a claim which is not a part of the Resolution Plan. e. With regard to other concessions and reliefs, most of them are subsumed in the reliefs granted above. The relief included in any part of resolution plan, which is I.A. (PLAN) NO. 136 OF 2025 IN CP (IB) NO. 715 OF 2021 not expressly granted above, shall not be construed as granted. The exemptions if any sought in violation of any law in force, it is hereby clarified that such exemptions shall be construed as not granted. It is further clarified that the reliefs and concessions sought which are beyond the scope of provisions of Section 31(1) and Section 32A of the Code cannot be granted and are as such deemed to have not been granted.

f. It is also clarified that, if this Resolution Plan stipulates or provides for any benefit flowing through any other law, then the same may be deemed as not allowed/approved and would be open to action by the concerned authority in accordance with law. vi. The Memorandum of Association (MoA) and Articles of Association (AoA) shall accordingly be amended and filed with the concerned Registrar of Companies (RoC), for information and record. The Resolution Applicant, 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. vii.
