    <title>Admission of Section 7 petition upheld; Rs.2,50,00,000 deemed financial debt under Section 5(8); Section 18 extended limitation</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=92518</link>
    <description>NCLAT affirmed the AA&#039;s admission of the Section 7 application, dismissing the appeal. The Tribunal held the asserted Rs.2,50,00,000 obligation constituted &quot;financial debt&quot; under Section 5(8) of the IBC, noting consistent acknowledgement in the corporate debtor&#039;s audited balance sheets for FY 2017-18, 2018-19, 2020-21, 2021-22 and 2022-23. Pursuant to Section 18 of the Limitation Act, those acknowledgements extended the limitation period, rendering the Section 7 petition filed on 30.03.2024 time-barred. On review of materials, the AA correctly found debt and default; no infirmity was shown in admitting the petition. The appeal lacked merit and was dismissed.</description>
