1. This is an application filed by the Resolution Professional (hereinafter referred to as “RP”) under Section 33(2) read with Section 60(5) of the IA No. 1037 of 2023 in CP(IB)/112/10/HDB/2021 Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 praying this Adjudicating Authority to order liquidation of M/s. Infiniti Techlabs L.L.P. (hereinafter referred to as “Corporate Debtor”). 2. The brief facts of the case are as follows:

a. The Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) was initiated against the Corporate Debtor (CD) vide order dated 10th March, 2023 of this Tribunal.

b. Mr. Kedari Narasimha was appointed as Interim Resolution Professional (IRP) and he was replaced by Rachamallu Ramachandra Reddy, the applicant herein, vide order dated 21/04/2023 of this Tribunal (IA No. 635/2023).

c. After assuming charge, IRP constituted CoC with the Financial Creditor, Operational Creditors and the Workmen/Ex-employees. The IRP, in the first meeting, held on 12/04/2023, informed that the Registered Office of the CD was locked and one of the CD’s Partners who accompanied the IRP confirmed that there were no operations of the Company since 2021. Further, the IRP informed CoC Members that there is a credit balance of Rs. 6,79,010/- in CD’s current account no. 5020001927105 maintained with HDFC Bank Malkajgiri Branch and the CD also owned a Car, which was hypothecated to HDFC Bank and the IRP has taken control of the Car.

d. The Applicant/RP assumed charge on 24/04/2023 and came to know that CD’s office was locked and no operations were found in the office of the CD. No assets are available except the Car, which was taken over by the IRP.

e. The Securities and Financial Valuers submitted their reports to the RP as per which, the value of the assets is very meagre which is not

IA No. 1037 of 2023 in CP(IB)/112/10/HDB/2021 sufficient to cover the CIRP and the liquidation Costs. RP has not appointed valuers for the land and building assets as no such assets have ben identified.

f. In the Second CoC held on 09/06/2023, CoC Members expressed their view that the value of the assets of the CD is very meagre and the liquidation value of the assets is also meagre and they may not fetch a good resolution plan. Therefore, CoC member/FC resolved as follows: “Resolved that the approval of Committee of Creditors of Infiniti Techlabs LLP, Hyderabad be and hereby accorded for liquidation of the CD as per section 33(2) of Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016”

g. It was further resolved by the CoC that Mr. Rachamallu Ramachandra Reddy, RP be authorized to carry out all necessary actions for giving effect to the above said resolution.

h. As per the provisions of Regulation 39(B) of CIRP Regulations, CoC members discussed with the RP and estimated the liquidation costs and approved the following costs:

S.No. Particulars of expenses Amount in Rs. 1. Liquidator’s fee @ 60,000/- 1,80,000 per month for three months 2. Remuneration payable to 15,000 professional 3. Legal counsel expenses 35,000 4.

IA No. 1037 of 2023 in CP(IB)/112/10/HDB/2021 8. E-auction expenses and 20,000 advertisement 9 Insurance 10,000 10 Repairs and maintenance 10,000 11 RoC filing 5,000 12 Record keeping – Old records 25,000 of CD for 8 years 13 Stationery, Printing, xerox, 10,000 scanning etc. 14 Conveyance 25,000 Total 4,25,000 i.

A copy of the Minutes of Second CoC held on 09/06/2023 is enclosed as Annexure – 2 to the application. j. The appointment of a Transaction Auditor was not approved by the CoC.

3. In view of the above factual matrix, the applicant/RP has filed this application seeking for an order requiring the Corporate Debtor to be liquidated.

4. We have heard the Counsel appearing for the Liquidator. A perusal of the contents of the application would show that the Resolution Professional has made his best efforts to keep the Corporate Debtor as a going concern,

IA No. 1037 of 2023 in CP(IB)/112/10/HDB/2021 but since no Resolution Plan, which was viable, was received, the CoC with 100% voting has recommended for liquidation of the Corporate Debtor. 5. From the above, it would appear that despite all possible steps as required under the Code, taken during the CIRP, the CoC did not receive any viable proposal for revival of the Company. ORDER 6.
