Show AI Summary
Personal guarantor insolvency: repayment plan stayed pending majority determination, with restraint on direct or indirect asset alienation.

The dispute follows split views on approval of the plan, claim admission and voting, followed by a third-member opinion that did not resolve the absence of a determinative majority. Creditors dispute the proposed recovery, claim treatment and declared net worth relevant to the guarantees.

Show AI Summary
Personal insolvency repayment plans: conflicting views on binding dissenting creditors prompted reconsideration through an expanded adjudicatory bench.
National Company Law Tribunal constituted a five-member bench after conflicting views on a personal insolvency repayment plan left no majority position for a formal order.

One view preserved dissenting creditors' independent recovery rights, while another applied the creditor-approved plan uniformly to all creditors. Disagreement also concerns the Adjudicating Authority's power to examine the resolution professional's report of the creditors' meeting.
