Tribunal grants 90-day CIRP extension, dismisses challenge on claim rejection.
The Tribunal granted an extension of 90 days to the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) beyond the initial 180 days based on the Committee of Creditors' resolution. It directed the Resolution Professional to consider a claim within a specified timeframe, acknowledging precedents for condoning delays. The Tribunal dismissed an application challenging claim rejection, citing a precedent where claims were already admitted in a similar case. It emphasized that no duplicate claim would be maintainable for the same set of claims and default, making the application not maintainable.
Issues: 1. Application for extending the period of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process by 90 days. 2. Application for condoning the delay in filing the claim before the Resolution Professional. 3. Application filed against the rejection of claims by the Resolution Professional.
Analysis: 1. The first issue pertains to an application seeking an extension of the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) period by 90 days beyond the initial 180 days. The application was supported by the resolution of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) passed in its 3rd meeting, authorizing the Resolution Professional (RP) to file the application. The reasons for seeking the extension were related to the delay in certain procedural steps required for the resolution process. The Tribunal, after hearing the arguments, granted the extension as the case for extension was deemed plausible based on the circumstances presented.
2. The second issue involves an application for condoning the delay in filing a claim before the RP. The RP acknowledged that there were precedents for condoning such delays and assured that the claim would be considered without rejection on the ground of delay. The Tribunal disposed of this application with directions to consider the applicant's claim within a specified timeframe.
3. The third issue concerns an application filed against the rejection of claims by the RP. The applicant, Suraksha Asset Reconstruction Pvt. Ltd., challenged the rejection of its claims, citing a precedent where the claims were already admitted in a similar case. The RP relied on a specific order from the Appellate Tribunal, highlighting that no duplicate claim would be maintainable for the same set of claims and default. The Tribunal dismissed the application, stating that the claims were already admitted against the principal borrower in a previous case, making the present application not maintainable.
In summary, the Tribunal addressed various applications related to the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process, including granting an extension, condoning a delay in filing a claim, and dismissing an application against the rejection of claims based on established precedents and legal principles governing insolvency proceedings.
