A party instituted a civil declaratory suit challenging initiation of CIRP, disputing existence of a legally enforceable debt and alleging fraud/forgery in documents including an assignment deed, while seeking to bypass the IBC framework. The Court held that although the NCLT, while admitting a Section 7 application, cannot adjudicate pre-existing disputes about the debt, the IBC vests the NCLT with jurisdiction under Sections 65, 75 and 60(5)(c) read with the NCLT Rules to examine fraud, collusion, and veracity of documents, with consequences extending to continuation of CIRP.
