The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC/Code) stands as a pivotal milestone in the Indian financial landscape, revolutionizing the resolution framework for insolvent entities.

The Code emphasizes a creditor-driven insolvency resolution process, facilitating a transparent and time-bound mechanism for distressed businesses. Over the years, the IBC has earned its place as one of the most significant pieces of legislation in recent times. As the IBC continues to evolve, it becomes imperative to delve deeper into its intricacies, exploring novel perspectives and insights through rigorous research. Scholars and practitioners engaging in research contribute to the development of best practices, offer solutions to emerging challenges, and unravel the complexities associated with insolvency proceedings.
