Income tax proceedings against company dissolved / insolvent - Jurisdiction or authority to reopen or assess income for any period prior to the approval of the Resolution Plan - The High Court affirmed that once a Resolution Plan is approved under the IBC, it becomes binding on all stakeholders, including creditors and guarantors, extinguishing liabilities prior to its approval.
