ORDER

Per: Coram

1. It is an application filed u/s 33(1) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (Code) by Mrs. Dipti Amit Thite, Resolution Professional (RP) of Blue Mushroom Infozone Private Limited seeking liquidation order based on the resolution passed by the CoC in its 3rd meeting held 18.10.2023. 2. On perusal of this application, it appears that CP No. (IB)-(MB) 3882/2018 was admitted by this Tribunal on 10.07.2023 and Mr. Dipti Amit Thite was appointed as Interim Resolution Professional (IRP). 3. The Applicant published requisite Form A as per Regulation 6 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) Regulations, 2016 on 15.07.2023 and the last date of submission of claims was 26.07.2023. 4. Post verification of claims, the Committee of Creditors was constituted and the same was intimated to the bench vide Interlocutory Application (IA) No. 3494 of 2023 and the said IA was allowed vide order dated 12.09.2023. 5. After the formation of the Committee of Creditors, the appointment of the present Applicant as Resolution Professional of the Corporate Debtor was approved in the first meeting of the CoC held on 09.08.2023 through voting by ballot paper on 18.08.2023.

IN THE NATIONAL COMPANY LAW TRIBUNAL, MUMBAI BENCH, COURT II IA. No. 28/2024 IN CP(IB)No. 3882/MB/C-II/2018

6. There were no transactions found under section 43, 45, 50 and 66, respectively of the IBC, 2016 and hence no opinion was formed neither any application related to such transactions were filed with the bench. 7. Thereafter, in the 2nd CoC meeting held on 13.09.2023, the Applicant proposed to publish Form G for inviting Expression of Interest. However, the Applicant did not receive the requisite ballot papers from the members of CoC except from one of the CoC member. The other CoC members didn’t respond to the emails of the Applicant reminding to send ballot paper and one of them did not even attend the said meeting nor submitted the ballot papers. The last date of receipt of ballot papers for the 2nd CoC meeting was 16.09.2023. 8. Hence, owing to the non-receipt of concrete decision from the CoC members with regard to publication of Form G, no steps were taken for publication of Form G. 9. In the 3rd meeting of the CoC held on 18.10.2023 the Applicant placed the resolution for initiation of Liquidation proceedings of the Corporate Debtor pursuant to the provisions of section 33 of the IBC, 2016 and it was decided that since there were no assets with the Corporate Debtor and the Corporate Debtor also did not have any business for the last three years, the only option left was liquidation of the Corporate Debtor in the line with the provisions of IBC, 2016. Consequently, the Applicant passed the following resolution:
