If not IBBI can frame appropriate regulations, safeguards there by the maximisation of value of the assets of the Corporate Debtor(s) would further increase which in turn will benefit all the stakeholders.

.... decision in K. Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank & Others (in Civil Appeal No. 10673/2018 decided on 05.02.2019) has held that if the CoC had approved the Resolution Plan by requisite percent of voting share, then as per section 30(6) of the Code, it is imperative for the Resolution Professional to submit the same to the Adjudicating Authority (NCLT). On receipt of such a proposal, the Adjudicating Authority is required to satisfy itself that the Resolution Plan as approved by CoC meets the requirements specified in Section 30(2). The Hon'ble Court observed that the role of the NCLT is 'no more and no less'. The Hon'ble Court further held that the discretion of the Adjudicating Authority is circumscribed by Section 31 and is limited to scrutiny of the Resolution Plan "as approved" by the requisite percent of voting share of financial creditors. Even in that enquiry, the grounds on which the Adjudicating Authority can reject the Resolution Plan is in reference to matters specified in Section 30(2) when the Resolution Plan does not conform to the stated requirements. 21.

The resolution applicant may have given projections backed by normative data but still in the opinion of the dissenting financial creditors, it would not be free from being speculative. These aspects are completely within the domain of the financial creditors who are called upon to vote on the resolution plan under Section 30 (4) of the I&B Code. 22. Moreover the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter of J.P. Kensington Boulevard Apartments Welfare Association & Ors. V/s. NBCC (India) Ltd. & Ors. (Civil Appeal No. 3395 of 2020 decided on 24.03.2021) has held that, the Adjudicating Authority cannot modify the Resolution Plan, but can send it back for reconsideration to the CoC.

"To put in a nutshell, the Adjudicating Authority has limited jurisdiction in the matter of approval of a resolution plan, which is well-defined and circumscribed by Sections 30(2) and 31 of the Code read with the parameters delineated by this Court in the decisions above referred.

In the light of above stated discussions and the law has been settled, we find that the proposed Resolution Plan meets the requirements of Section 30(2) of the Code and Regulations 37, 38, 38(1A) and 39 (4) of the Regulations. The Resolution Plan is not found in contravention of any of the provisions of Section 29A of the Code and is in accordance with Law. Hence the same deserves approval with following observation and direction to the CoC to make payments as per liquidation value to all the dissenting Financial Creditors in cash upfront before any payment is made to assenting Financial Creditors as per the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter of Jaypee Kensington Boulevard Apartments Welfare Association & Ors. vs. NBCC (India) Ltd. & Ors. matter. 25.
