The RP has complied with the requirement of the Code in terms of Section 30(2)(a) to 30(2)(f) and Regulation 37(c), 37(d), 37(f), 37 (h), 37(i), 37(j) & 37(l), Regulations 38(1), 38(1)(a), 38(1)(b), 38(1A), 38(1B), 38(2)(a), 38(2)(b), 38(2)(c), 38(2)(d) & 38(3) and 39(4) of the Regulations.

The RP has filed Compliance Certificate in Form-H along with the Plan. On perusal the same is found to be in order. The Resolution Plan has been approved by the CoC by majority of 100%.

The CIRP period expired on 20.2.2022, and there was no extension for the period from 21st December 2022 till 20th May 2024, though there was an order further extending the period from 21st May, 2024.
Accordingly, the Bench had directed the Applicant vide order dated 13.12.2024, stating that, “…..directed to file and place on record details along with relevant order explaining the extension from each expiry,

MUMBAI BENCH- I IA No. 93 of 2024 IN

Page 33 of 38

particularly order of this Tribunal, extending the period of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process from October 2022 to December, 2023. Consequently, the RP vide had filed an application no. bearing I.A 1014/2025 on 08.02.2025 seeking extension of the relevant period. explaining the clarification sought by the Bench. The RP stated as follows in the application:

“….5. The Applicant states that, he had taken one more extension from 21st May 2024 till 19th August 2024 by filing an Application before the Hon’ble Tribunal bearing IA No.2898 of 2024 which was allowed on 6th June 2024.
6. The second extension was allowed by the Hon’ble Tribunal from 21st May 2022 till 19th August 2024 via IA No.2898 of 2024. 7. The Applicant had called for the 22nd COC Meeting on 22nd January 2025.
8. The voting results received from the COC on 06th February 2025….”

The RP further stated in the application that the extension was allowed for the period of 20.10.2022 to 20.12.2022 on 21.02.2024. Also, the RP reported that the IA 5793 of 2023 for the aforesaid extension period was filed on 20.12.2020 by the Applicant but got listed before the Hon’ble Tribunal on 19.01.2024. Thus, the Applicant had assumed that, the extension of ninety days was given from 21.02.2024 till 21.05.2024 and the previous period was excluded by this Tribunal. Furthermore, the RP submitted that IA No.2898 of 2024 was filed for extension of the period from extension from 21.05.2024 till 19.08.2024 which was which was allowed on 06.06.2024.

j. The use of Intellectual Property Rights, if owned by a third party,
shall be subject to concurrence of its holder, as holder of such Intellectual Property Rights has not been afforded an opportunity in the matter.

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”). 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 to matters specified in Section 30(2) when the Resolution Plan does not conform to the stated requirements.

In view of the discussions and the law thus settled, the instant Resolution Plan meets the requirements of Section 30(2) of the Code and Regulations 37, 38, 38 (1A), 38 (1B), and 39 (4) of the Regulations. The Resolution Plan is not in contravention of any of the provisions of Section 29A of the Code and is in accordance with law. The same needs to be approved. Hence, ordered.
