HC determined that secured creditors possess priority rights for debt recovery over government dues. The bank's claim against the borrower's secured assets takes precedence over state tax arrears under the Value Added Tax Act. The court specifically held that while no explicit first charge exists for banks under DRT or SARFAESI Acts, statutory provisions inherently grant secured creditors priority in realizing their dues. The court's reasoning emphasized the fundamental principle of secured creditors' rights to recover outstanding debts through sale of mortgaged properties before other governmental claims. Consequently, the petition was allowed, affirming the bank's priority in asset recovery.
