The decree from the Bombay High Court, based on dishonored bills of exchange and cheques, constitutes a financial debt under the IBC. The respondent qualifies as a financial creditor. While interest is not a necessary component for a debt to be considered financial, the threshold for initiating Section 7 proceedings exists even without interest.
