Section 10A exclusion under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code must be computed with the correct contractual credit period, and invoices cannot be mechanically placed in the excluded period without reference to the supply terms. The tribunal found that goods from the Indian warehouse carried a 40-day credit period, so the remaining operational debt still crossed the Section 9 threshold.

The rejection of the Section 9 application was set aside.
