....ncy or any composition or arrangement with the creditors. In pursuance thereof, she has signed power of attorney, pleadings and other papers. The application cannot be considered in complete. Therefore, the objection raised would not survive. 15. It has further been argued that the default amount mentioned in part IV column 2 of the application does not match with the amount mentioned in various other documents annexed by the applicant. A reference has been invited to status classification report of the corporate debtor issued by CIBIL dated 28.02.2017, bankers book maintained by the applicant and acceleration notice. Even this objection will not survive because a perusal of the CIBIL report dated 28.02.2017 mention the same figure of default namely Rs. 59,38,00,000/- (Rupees Fifty Nine Crore Thirty Eight Lakhs) and the element of interest amounting to Rs. 11,77,43,681 (Rupees Eleven Crore Seventy Seven Lakhs Forty Three Thousand Six Hundred Eighty One) is not required to be reflected. It clearly mentions the account to be substandard. Likewise, in the Bankers Book (Exhibit-14) same amount has been worked out under the column balance as on 16.08.2016 namely Rs. 59,38,00,000/- (Rup....

The New Okhla Industrial Development Authority has filed an application for intervention under Rule 32 of the NCLT Rules, and has placed on record a copy of the lease deed executed between the 'Corporate Debtor' and the New Okhla Industrial Development Authority. 18. The question which arises for consideration is whether the petitioner has been able to satisfy the requirement of Section 7 of the Code. According to Explanation appended to Section 7(1) of the Code an application by the 'Financial Creditor' either on its own behalf or jointly with the other financial creditor would be competent for initiating Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process against a 'Corporate Debtor' before this Tribunal when a default has occurred. It is obvious that the lead bank like the petitioner is competent to file this application on its own behalf and other banks who are members of the Consortium. 19. In order to ascertain whether the default has occurred, it will be profitable to read Section 3(12) of the Code which states that default means non-payment of debt when whole or any part of the instalment of the de....

....ejecting the application under clause (b) of sub-section (5), give a notice to the applicant to rectify the defect in his application within seven days of receipt of such notice from the Adjudicating Authority." A conjoint perusal of the aforesaid provision would reveal that form and manner of the application has to be the one prescribed by the authorities. It is required to be accompanied by the prescribed fee. It is further evident that if the application is incomplete as per the requirement of Section 7(2) of the Code then this Tribunal being the Adjudicating Authority may reject it. However, proviso to Section 7(5) of the Code postulates that before rejecting the application on the ground that it is incomplete in terms of Section 7(2) of the Code the Tribunal is obliged to give notice to the applicant to rectify the defect in his application. The defect in the application needs to be removed within seven days from the date of receipt of notice. 22. For the reasons, aforementioned this petition is admitted. Shri Rajesh Samson who is duly registered with Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI/IPA-001/IP-P00240/2017-18/10469) has been proposed as an Interim Resolution Pr....
