National Company Law Tribunal30 September 2026

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

Where a corporate applicant files a petition under Section 10 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 that is complete in the sense of containing the information required by Section 10(2) and (3) and Form 6, and the corporate applicant is not ineligible under Section 11, the Adjudicating Authority is bound to admit the application; its scrutiny is confined to these matters and does not extend to other grounds for rejection. Under Section 10, the Adjudicating Authority may decline to admit a complete application only where the corporate applicant is ineligible under Section 11; it has no power to go beyond the records and information prescribed by Section 10 and Form 6. The requirement of notice to creditors at the pre-admission stage of a Section 10 application is discretionary, to be exercised on a case-to-case basis on valid grounds, and is not a mandatory requirement.

Brief Facts

4. It is averred in the petition that the Corporate Applicant is the manufacturer of plastic products. It has been facing financial difficulties since the Covid 19 lockdown in 2020. Single use of plastic was banned vide Plastic Waste Management Amendment Rules, 2021 which was the primary source of income of the Company. Because of the above, it could not fulfill its obligations and the factory was shut down resulting in loss of its work force. It was unable to generate any revenue, however, its expenses and financial difficulties continued mounting. It was unable to pay its Financial Creditors. It is even unable to pay the GST tax. The Directors of the Company were constrained to use their personal savings to pay to the Financial CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited

Creditors of the Company. They paid around Rs. 18,25,00,000/- from their savings for the repayment of loan taken by the Company after mortgaging the land belonging to the Directors individually. It could not pay to their Operational Creditors and Government Taxes. It is unable to get back on track due to shortage of funds. It is stated that the cash flow of the Company has come to standstill.

5. It is stated that considering the above situation, the Company was constrained to pass a Board Resolution on 11.08.2023 under the IBC for filing a petition for initiating CIRP under Section 10. With the petition, it has filed list of sundry creditors, sundry debtors at page 190 to 209.

It has also filed copy of a petition filed by Balaji Trading Enterprises

Private Limited and Saudi Basic Industries Corporation - SBIC, the Operational Creditors for initiating CIRP against the Petitioner.

6. It is stated that the Company has a strong brand name and a loyal customer base. The company has a valuable asset. It believes that it can restructure its debt and resume operations. It is unlikely that it will be able to repay to its creditors in full. It has lost a significant portion of its customers due to the ban on single use plastic. The CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited company needs to find a way to generate revenue to repay its creditors and stay in business.

7. This Tribunal vide an order dated 30.01.2025 directed the Petitioner to file status of the petition filed by Balaji Trading Enterprises Private

Arguments and Contentions

10. We have heard Ld. Counsel for the Petitioner and perused the records.

11. Ld. Counsel for the Petitioner submits that the petition filed under

Form-6 furnished all the requisite and relevant particulars. The Petitioner has furnished various details regarding the financials, compliances and operations of the Company. He submits that none of the creditors has alleged that the Petitioner is disqualified under

Section 11 of IBC. Ld. Counsel referred to the cases of “(1) “Unigreen

Pvt. Ltd. V. Punjab National Bank, 2017 SCC Online NCLAT 566”; (2) Leo

Duct Engineers and Consultant Ltd. V. Canara Bank, 2017 SCC OnLine

NCLAT 547”; (3) Go Airlines (India) Limited, 2023 SCC OnLine NCLT 197;

391” to contend that if the Adjudicating Authority is satisfied that there is debt, default has occurred and there is no ineligibility under Section

11, it has to admit the petition under Section 10 of IBC. Non-disclosure of any fact, unrelated to Section 10 or Form-6 cannot be termed as the suppression of facts. What the Adjudicating Authority has to satisfy that there is a debt, default has occurred, the petition is complete in terms of Section 10(2) and 10(3) and the Corporate Debtor is not ineligible under Section 11 of IBC. Ld. Counsel submits that Section 10 of IBC does not provide the Adjudicating Authority to go beyond the records as prescribed under Section 10 and information as required in Form-6 of the Adjudicating Authority Rules. Till date, none of the Creditors has filed any application under Section 65 of IBC, 2016.

CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited

Analysis / Findings

12. Section 10 of IBC, 2016 provides as under:

“Section 10. Initiation of corporate insolvency resolution process by corporate applicant.

(1) Where a corporate debtor has committed a default, a corporate applicant thereof may file an application for initiating corporate insolvency resolution process with the Adjudicating Authority. (2) The application under sub-section (1) shall be filed in such form, containing such particulars and in such manner and accompanied with such fee as may be prescribed. 3) The corporate applicant shall, along with the application furnish the Information relating to- (a) its books of account and such other documents relating to such period as may be specified; and (b) the resolution professional proposed to be appointed as an interim resolution professional. (c) the special resolution passed by shareholders of the corporate debtor or the resolution passed by at least three-fourth of the total number of partners of the corporate debtor, as the case may be, approving filing of the application. (4) The Adjudicating Authority shall, within a period of fourteen days of the receipt of the application, by an order— (a) admit the application, if it is complete; 2[and no disciplinary proceeding is pending against the proposed resolution professional]; or (b) reject the application, if it is incomplete: 2[or any disciplinary proceeding is pending against the proposed resolution professional:] Provided that Adjudicating Authority shall, before rejecting an application, give a notice to the applicant to rectify the defects in his application within seven days from the date of receipt of such notice from the Adjudicating Authority.

CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited (5) The corporate insolvency resolution process shall commence from the date of admission of the application under sub-section (4) of this section.”

13. A perusal of the documents reveals that the Petitioner Company used to manufacture plastic products. Due to ban on single use of plastic in 2021 and Covid 19 pandemic, it suffered a major blow. It failed to pay to its Creditors. The ban resulted in loss of significant portion of its customers. Although, its Directors tried to clear the liabilities of the Company from their personal resources, but the debts continued mounting. Its financial situation became precarious. Many creditors initiated proceedings against the Corporate Applicant. The Company needs a way to generate revenue to repay its Creditors and stay in business. As per the petition, the total amount owed to the Operational Creditors is Rs. 2,51,97,892.11 which is above the threshold of Rs. 1.0 Crores. The Applicant has placed the financials and the documents contemplated under Section 11 and Form 6 including the Board Resolution. This petition has been filed on 16.10.2023.

14. Hon’ble National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (hereinafter,

Hon’ble NCLAT), New Delhi in M/s. Unigreen Global Private Limited vs.

Punjab National Bank and others (Company Appeal (AT) (Insolvency) CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited

81/2017) has held that if an application under Section 10 is complete and in absence of any ineligibility of Corporate Applicant, the Adjudicating Authority is bound to admit the application. The relevant portion of the judgement is reproduced hereunder, “22. Section 10 does not empower the Adjudicating Authority to go beyond the records as prescribed under Section 10 and the informations as required to be submitted in Form 6 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy (Application to the Adjudicating Authority) Rules, 2016 subject to ineligibility prescribed under Section 11. If all informations are provided by an applicant as required under Section 10 and Form 6and if the Corporate Applicant is otherwise not ineligible under Section 11, the Adjudicating Authority is bound to admit the application and cannot reject the application on any other ground”

15. In the case of Go Airlines (India) Limited, CP/IB-264(PB)/2023, which was affirmed by the Hon'ble NCLAT in Company Appeal (AT)

[Insolvency] No. 593 of 2023, it was held as under:

34. Further, we are conscious of the fact that hearing each and every Creditor, under Section 10 of IBC 2016, can cause an inordinate delay in the conclusion of the proceeding, which may result in the erosion of the value of the assets and defeat the very purpose of value maximization and ultimately, the revival of the Corporate Applicant, which is not the objective of the IBC. As we have seen above, in the Application to Adjudicating Authority Rules, 2016, even the right to serve a copy of a Section 10 Application is not conferred to the Creditor(s). Hence, in view of the above, we conclude that in Section 10 proceedings, though there is no mandatory requirement of issuing notice to the Creditor(s) at the pre-admission stage, rather giving notice to the Creditor(s) is a matter of discretion to be exercised on a case-to-case basis on valid grounds. Wherever there is a clear apprehension of CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited deterioration of assets of the Corporate Applicant/Debtor and larger public interest is involved, issuance of notice at the pre-admission stage cannot be claimed as a matter of right.

43. We observe that Section 65 only uses the word “initiates”, and does not make any distinction like the stage of pre-admission or post admission of CIRP, and from the reading of Sub-section (1), it transpires that the provision is applicable not only on the date on which a financial creditor / operational creditor or corporate applicant, as the case may be, makes an application to the Adjudicating Authority for initiating corporate insolvency resolution process but certainly, not limited to and may extend to the period of Liquidation, as the case may be. Needless to say, that fraud vitiates all acts. There could be instances where the fraudulent act is detected much after the commencement of CIRP. If a narrow interpretation of Section 65 of IBC 2016 is taken i.e., limiting its applicability to the pre-admission stage, then Section 65 will have no relevance. Therefore, Section 65 of IBC can be resorted by an aggrieved party at any stage, be it preadmission or post admission. Accordingly, we conclude that there is no bar in entertaining/considering/adjudicating a Section 65 Application after the initiation of the CIR Process.

44. Further, as we have noted earlier, as of the date of the hearing, there was no Section 65 Application filed/pending/listed before this Adjudicating Authority. Keeping in mind the urgency of the instant case, to protect and maximize the value of the Assets in line with the objectives of IBC, employment involved, and the larger public interest, the judicial propriety demands it will not be apt to wait for the filing of the Section 65 Application. Hence, we would like to proceed ahead with the examination of the Section 10 Application on merits.

16. This Tribunal is satisfied that there is a default in the repayment of debt and the petition filed under Section 10 is complete with all the necessary information. Further, the Corporate Applicant is not

CP(IB)/45(CHE)/2024 In the matter of Rajalakshmy Packaging Private Limited ineligible to make petition as per Section 11 of IBC, 2016. Therefore, we are of the view that this Company petition is required to be admitted u/s 10 of the Code. We order accordingly.

17. The Corporate Applicant has proposed the name of Ms. E. Santhanalakshmi having Reg. No. IBBI/IPA-002/IP-

N00831/2019-2020/12661 as the Interim Resolution Professional (IRP). We therefore appoint Ms. E. Santhanalakshmi having
