The note addresses whether a confirmed tax-sale transfers title when an insolvency moratorium later commences. It explains that under the Second Schedule and attendant rules, confirmation of a tax sale vests absolute title in the auction purchaser once purchase money is deposited; issuance of the sale certificate is a ministerial formality and merely evidences the date of vesting. Accordingly, a moratorium on proceedings under insolvency law cannot retrospectively nullify a sale that had already become absolute at confirmation. The practical effect is that confirmed sales completed before CIRP commencement remain effective and cannot be set aside by the moratorium.
