    <title>Electricity Provider Cannot Recover Pre-CIRP Dues After Resolution Plan Approval Under IBC Section 31(1)</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=86098</link>
    <description>NCLAT dismissed an appeal concerning pre-CIRP electricity dues, affirming NCLT&#039;s jurisdiction over post-resolution plan disputes under IBC Section 60(5). The Tribunal held that IBC provisions supersede the Electricity Act 2003 per Section 238. The approved resolution plan&#039;s binding nature under Section 31(1) extinguished pre-CIRP dues since the appellant electricity company failed to file claims during CIRP. The Successful Resolution Applicant&#039;s (SRA) protest payment for electricity restoration was deemed compulsory for business continuation. The ruling established that creditors cannot demand pre-CIRP dues after resolution plan approval without having filed claims during the insolvency process, upholding IBC&#039;s primacy in resolving corporate insolvency matters.</description>
