....the Petitioner has not disclosed a letter dated 14.03.2015 addressed to the Corporate Debtor wherein it was stated that the default occurred in July 2014 but in the petition the date of default was shown as 1.10.2014. The nondisclosure of the letter or even the mistake in the date of default cannot absolve the liability of the Corporate Debtor and the contention that this has been done to get favourable orders from this Bench does not hold water. e. The Corporate Debtor contends that the Petitioner by letter dated 20.10.2014 granted a fresh term loan of Rs. 16.5 crores with effect from 24.09.2014 apart from renewing the other term loans to the extent of outstanding due as on that date, that being the situation the occurrence of default on 01.10.2014 that too just few days before the new sanction and renewal of loan is not correct and in fact at no point of time the Corporate Debtor defaulted.

However, a mortgage was registered on 29.02.2012 in favour of the Petitioner by the Corporate Debtor and hence, the claim is not barred by limitation. Further there was a payment of Rs. 56,00,000/- on 19.12.2014 by the Corporate Debtor and also the Corporate Debtor executed and registered the Deed of Extension of Mortgage on 20.12.2014. In view of this, the Corporate Debtor's reliance on the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of "B. K. Educational Services Private Limited vs. Parag Gupta and Associates" (2018 SCC OnLine SC 1921) which holds that Limitation Act, 1963 is applicable to IBC proceedings, is of no assistance to the Corporate Debtor. k. The Corporate Debtor relying on the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of "S. P. Chengalvaraya Naidu vs. Jagannath and Ors." (1994) 1 SCC 1 submits that, Petitioner's case is based on falsehood and it has no right to approach this court and this Petition can be summarily thrown out. The Corporate Debtor contends that the Petitioner wilfully suppressed the latest s....
