The dominant issue was whether the Section 9 IBC application filed on 06.05.2021 was within limitation. Since the claim was founded on the last invoice dated 07.11.2016, the right to apply accrued on 07.11.2016 and limitation was governed by Article 137 of the Limitation Act, not Article 1 on running accounts; a later invoice raised by the corporate debtor on 29.11.2018 could not shift the date of default, rendering the application time-barred. The tribunal also erred in relying on unilateral invoice terms on interest, which were inconsistent and not shown to be accepted by the corporate debtor. The impugned order was set aside and the appeal was allowed. - NCLAT
