A real, plausible dispute existing before receipt of a demand notice requires rejection of an operational creditor's application under Section 9(5)(ii)(d) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. The defence need not be likely to succeed, and the standard is lower than the preponderance of probability. The admission inquiry cannot assess contractual merits or require the dispute to be significant or convincing. Pre-notice correspondence can establish a dispute without litigation, arbitration or invocation of a contractual escalation mechanism. In pharmaceutical technology-transfer arrangements, disputes may concern laboratory-testing charges, milestone deliverables and investigations into out-of-specification results. A conditional settlement offer accompanied by grievances is not an admission of liability.
