Avoidance of a pre-CIRP sale as a fraudulent transaction was sought on the ground that it was without consideration and intended to defraud creditors. In the absence of any pending creditor claims at the time of execution, the subsequent classification of the debtor's bank account as NPA, and the presence of other secured assets, the requisite intent to defraud was not established; the liquidator failed to discharge the heavy burden of proof.
