Section 94 personal insolvency applications by personal guarantors are subject to limitation; an application based on a guarantee invoked in 2016 was treated as time-barred. Where admitted facts and applicable law establish non-maintainability, the Adjudicating Authority may reject a debtor-initiated Section 94 application at the threshold without appointing a Resolution Professional. Observations on Resolution Professional appointment in creditor-initiated Section 95 proceedings do not govern such debtor-initiated applications. Timing and surrounding circumstances also bear on bona fide invocation: filing after a recovery auction has concluded and third-party rights have started arising may show an attempt to obstruct recovery rather than seek insolvency resolution. The rejection of the application was affirmed and the appeal dismissed.
