The Hon’ble President of the National Company Law Tribunal, Chief Justice (Retd.) Ramalingam Sudhakar, demitted office today, 13 February 2026, after completing a distinguished tenure at the helm of the Tribunal. He had joined the Tribunal in November 2021.

During his tenure of over four years, the President significantly strengthened the institution and contributed meaningfully to the dispensation of justice in corporate and insolvency matters. His leadership was marked by diligence, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to judicial excellence.

Speaking at the farewell reference held in his honour, in the presence of Members of the Tribunal and office bearers of the NCLT Bar Associations, the President observed that the resolution rate of cases had increased substantially due to the collective cooperation of all stakeholders.

He noted that during the last four years, out of nearly 54,800 cases instituted before the Tribunal, more than 48,000 cases were disposed of, resulting in an impressive resolution rate of over 85 percent.

Apart from his judicial responsibilities, the President also focused on strengthening administrative systems and improving infrastructural facilities. These initiatives contributed significantly to the smooth functioning of the Tribunal and fostered an efficient and conducive working environment for Members of the Bar, litigants, and staff alike.
