@ In case the Corporate Debtor receives full building height approval, the total
settlement value payable to unsecured financial creditors will be 4677.97 lakhs
(treating the solitary non-voter’s share as zero since the liquidation value to
unsecured creditors is zero). In that case the % of amount provided to amount
claimed for unsecured financial creditors will be 66.17%, and the % of amount
provided to amount claimed for total claims will be 27.1% (of total claims, and

The Resolution Plan is subject to the following contingencies (Elaborate the contingencies):
i. In terms of the SRA approval, the sale building was proposed to be constructed as Basement + Ground Floor + 6 upper storied towers with a total built up are under free sale building of 4,758.58 sq.m. (51,220 sq.ft.).
approval, the sale building was proposed to be constructed as Basement + Ground Floor + 6 upper storied towers with a total built up are under free sale building of 4,758.58 sq.m. (51,220 sq.ft.). However, in January 2012, the Defence Ministry sent a letter to Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai, insisting on construction restriction, for projects in 500 yards periphery of its Signal Transmitting Station close by, in terms of Defence Ministry’s notification No. SRO 150 u/s 7 of Works of Defence Act, 1903. This resulted in the Corporate Debtor’s building height being restricted to 15.24 metres. The height restriction has left the Corporate Debtor with less than 50% of the sale area. ii. The height restriction has been challenged by the Corporate Debtor in Bombay High Court by way of Write Petition 337 or 2015, based on the plea that the project falls outside the prescribed 500 yards periphery, and reported shifting of the Singal Transmitting Station, etc.

iii.
Owing to the uncertainty of the outcome of the Writ Petition, the Resolution
Plan has been formulated based on the current approved height of Ground +
3 floors and the sale area of 22,781 sq.ft. of RERA carpet area.
iv.
If the height restriction is lifted and full height is permitted after disposal of
the writ petition, the Resolution Plan envisages Phase-II in which further
three floors would be constructed, when the remaining carpet area of about
40,351 sq.ft. (after acquiring and consuming 35% of fungible FSI) would be
constructed. In such a case, the Resolution Plan envisages payment of the
remaining dues of the unsecured creditors aggregating Rs. 45,68,51,134/- by
way of allocation of 10,153 sq.t. at a rate of Rs.45,000/sq.ft.
v.
While the allocation for CIRP cost and creditors (described as total Bid Value
by the Resolution Applicant) of Rs.23,23,50,492/- constitutes full and final
settlement of all the admitted claims, the Resolution Applicant’s commitment
of allocating 10,153 sq.ft. of RERA carpet area will enhance the total
allocation to Rs. 68,92,01,626/-.

In K Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank & Others (in Civil Appeal No.10673/2018 decided on 05.02.2019) the Hon’ble Apex Court 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).
solution 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 Apex Court further observed that the role of the NCLT is ‘no more and no less’. The Hon’ble Apex 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
