Misuse of the insolvency moratorium to frustrate SARFAESI enforcement was condemned; the court found chronic delay, collateral insolvency filings and repeated OTS proposals constituted tactical abuse, waiver and equitable estoppel that prejudiced the secured creditor and auction purchasers, and that sales and registered sale certificates crystallised purchaser rights before any moratorium.

The writ court permitted the secured creditor to proceed with completion and directed the DRT to complete pleadings and decide the securitisation application expeditiously.
