Communications by a Bankruptcy Trustee to the passport authority, conveying that statutory restriction, operate as informational and consequential measures rather than passport impounding under the Passports Act. The Trustee may administer the bankruptcy estate and ensure compliance with insolvency requirements. The travel restriction does not violate personal liberty where it follows an operative, unstayed bankruptcy order and the bankrupt person may seek permission from the National Company Law Tribunal. A writ challenge cannot be used to bypass the statutory insolvency process. en-us Tue, 21 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 12 May 2026 09:49:18 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=791450 Overseas travel during subsisting bankruptcy proceedings is prohibited without permission of the Adjudicating Authority.
