of <h1>Application Dismissed for Lack of Debt Proof & Default - No CIRP Initiation</h1> <h3>M/s. Sri Ganapathi Financiers Versus M/s. Srirangam Priya Promoters Private Limited</h3> M/s. Sri Ganapathi Financiers Versus M/s. Srirangam Priya Promoters Private Limited - TMI Issues Involved:Application under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016 for initiating Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against a Corporate Debtor based on outstanding debt and default.Analysis:1. Debt and Default Allegations:The Financial Creditor filed an application under Section 7 alleging that the Corporate Debtor failed to repay a loan of Rs. 50,00,000/- with interest, resulting in a total outstanding debt of Rs. 76,53,969.10. The default date was claimed to be 19.08.2019 based on an unregistered Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) dated 05.07.2019. The Respondent, however, contended that the loan was availed by the Managing Director personally, not by the Corporate Debtor, and there was no evidence of the loan amount being transferred to the Corporate Debtor's account.2. Examination of Documents:The Tribunal examined the bank statements submitted by the Applicant, which showed transactions between the Applicant and the Managing Director in his individual capacity, not the Corporate Debtor. The Applicant failed to provide evidence of the loan being disbursed to the Corporate Debtor's account, as required to establish debt and default for admission under Section 7.3. Rejection of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU):The Tribunal rejected the unregistered MoU dated 05.07.2019 as it lacked proof of the loan amount being transferred to the Corporate Debtor. Additionally, a Deed of Mortgage registered between the Managing Director and the Applicant further indicated the absence of a direct contractual relationship between the Applicant and the Corporate Debtor.4. Lack of Evidence of Debt and Default:Despite the Applicant's reliance on the MoU to claim a total outstanding amount of Rs. 1,00,00,000/-, the Tribunal emphasized the lack of evidence supporting the transfer of funds to the Corporate Debtor's account. The absence of interest payments from the Corporate Debtor's accounts further weakened the Applicant's case in establishing debt and default.5. Dismissal of Application:Based on the above analysis, the Tribunal dismissed the application under Section 7 for failing to prove debt and default required for initiating the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process against the Corporate Debtor. The Applicant was unable to substantiate the claim of outstanding debt owed by the Corporate Debtor, leading to the dismissal of the application without costs.
