The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) recently held in an appeal against the Allahabad bench of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) that any disputes within a corporate debtor company is not one that is defined under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC), which only takes into consideration disputes between a debtor and its operational creditors.
In Mr Chetan Sharma v Jai Lakshmi Solvents Pvt Ltd, the corporate debtor appealed against an order passed by the NCLT for separate appeals filed by different operational creditors, who were owed a total of ₹60 million (US$870,000) by the corporate debtor. In response to applications filed under section 9 of the IBC, the NCLT admitted one application, passed a moratorium order, appointed an interim resolution professional and disposed of the other applications.
