Threshold scrutiny of locus standi under Section 94 IBC is permissible because the tribunal must first verify the jurisdictional fact of personal guarantor status before assuming jurisdiction; that inquiry goes only to maintainability and does not decide insolvency merits. The text also notes that the Section 97 process, including appointment of a Resolution Professional, is not automatic unless the application is validly instituted. On the facts, the applicant was described only as a co-borrower, produced no guarantee deed despite opportunity, and a later demand notice could not by itself establish guarantor status, so the application was not entertainable.
