Santosh Kumar vs Ask Trusteeship Services Private ...

National Company Law Appellate Tribunal13 March 2026

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The appeal is dismissed as infructuous because the corporate insolvency resolution process has been withdrawn under Section 12A, so the subject matter of the appeal no longer survives and no further adjudication is required. Interlocutory applications premised on the appellate proceedings are disposed of without further order where the applicant's grievance is met by the respondent's recorded statement that, upon withdrawal of the CIRP, the allotment will be reinstated subject to the terms of the agreement.
