Rejection of application against admission of CIRP u/s 7 application filed by the Financial Creditor - The tribunal pointed out that the corporate debtor’s financial statements classified the received funds as unsecured borrowing, and payments were made from these funds as per the agreements which also envisaged repayment schedules, further affirming their nature as debt. Even though initial agreements suggested equity investment, subsequent financial treatments and the lack of fulfillment of these agreements led the tribunal to regard the funds as a loan. The arrangements made did not culminate in the acquisition of equity, nor were the projected investments completed as planned. The NCLAT upheld the Adjudicating Authority’s decision, confirming that the financial transactions in question constituted a financial debt and not equity investment.
