  1. Approval of Competition Commission of India:

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India issued a Notification S.O.988 (E), dated 27.03.2017 whereby a combination would not require prior notification to and approval from the Competition Commission of India (CCI) if inter alia the target enterprises including its division units and subsidiaries has either assets not exceeding Rs.350 crores in India or turnover not exceeding Rs.1000 crores in India (Target Exemption). The value of assets and turnover of the target enterprises must relate to the Financial Year immediately preceding the Financial Year in which the proposed combination is being undertaken. As both the Assets and Turnover of the CD are less than the Target Exemption Threshold. As such, the Target Exemption is applicable to the present case and CCI approval is not required in this case.

  1. The Resolution Plan meets the requirement of Section 30(2) of IBC and Regulation 38 of CIRP Regulations.

  2. In the above backdrop, we have heard the Learned Counsel for the Applicant and perused the records.

  3. We have carefully considered the present application seeking approval of the Resolution Plan submitted by M/s Valentis Laboratories Private Limited in consortium with Surya Treasure Island Private Limited.

17

  1. While reviewing the resolution plan as aforesaid, we have taken into account the judgment in the case of K. Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank17 where the Hon’ble Supreme Court has held that:

“if 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. On receipt of such proposal, the Adjudicating Authority (NCLT) is required to satisfy itself that the resolution plan as approved by CoC meets the requirements specified in Section 30(2). No more and no less”. And held further in para 35 of the judgement that –

“the discretion of the adjudicating authority (NCLT) is circumscribed by Section 31 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”.

  1. The Hon’ble Supreme Court reiterated this view in the case of Essar Steel18 by holding that:

“…it is clear that the limited judicial review, which can in no circumstances trespass upon a business decision of the majority of the CoC, has to be within the four corners of section 30(2) of the Code, in so far as the Adjudicating Authority is concerned….”.

17 In K. Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank & Others (in Civil Appeal No. 10673/2018) decided on 05.02.2019: (2019) 12 SCC 150 18 Committee of Creditors of Essar Steel India Limited Vs. Satish Kumar Gupta & Ors. in Civil Appeal No.8766- 67/2019, decided on 15.11.2019: (2020) 8 SCC 531

18

  1. Reinforcing the above, the Hon’ble Supreme Court more recently has held in Vallal RCK vs M/s Siva Industries19 that: “21. This Court has consistently held that the commercial wisdom of the CoC has been given paramount status without any judicial intervention for ensuring completion of the stated processes within the timelines prescribed by the IBC. It has been held that there is an intrinsic assumption, that financial creditors are fully informed about the viability of the corporate debtor and feasibility of the proposed resolution plan. They act on the basis of thorough examination of the proposed resolution plan and assessment made by their team of experts.
    Emphasizing yet again, that

“27. This Court has, time and again, emphasized the need for minimal judicial interference by the NCLAT and NCLT in the framework of IBC.” and, by referring to an earlier judgment in the case of Arun Kumar Jagatramka20, added a note of caution that

“…However, we do take this opportunity to offer a note of caution for NCLT and NCLAT, functioning as the adjudicating authority and appellate authority under the IBC respectively, from judicially interfering in the framework envisaged under the IBC. As we have noted earlier in the judgment, the IBC was introduced in order to overhaul the insolvency and bankruptcy regime in India. As such, it is a carefully considered and well thought out piece of legislation which sought to shed away the practices of the past. The legislature has also been working hard to ensure that the efficacy of this legislation remains robust by constantly amending it based on its experience. Consequently, the need for judicial intervention or innovation from NCLT and NCLAT should be kept at its bare minimum

19 Vallal RCK vs M/s Siva Industries and Holdings Limited & Ors. in Civil Appeal No.1811-1812/2022, decided on 03.06.2022: (2022) 9 SCC 803 20 Arun Kumar Jagatramka v. Jindal Steel & Power Ltd. (2021) 7 SCC 474] : (SCC p. 533, para 95)

19

and should not disturb the foundational principles of the IBC…..”

  1. Therefore, when tested on the touch stone of the rulings, and considering the facts of the case, we are of the view that the Resolution Plan satisfies the requirements of Section 30 (2) of IBC and Regulations 37, 38 & 39 of CIRP Regulations. We also find that Consortium of VLPL & STIPL is eligible to submit the Resolution Plan under Section 29A of IBC.

  2. It is also to be clarified that approval of the Resolution Plan shall not be construed as waiver of any statutory obligations/ liabilities of the Corporate Debtor and shall be dealt with by the appropriate Authorities in accordance with law. Any waiver sought in the resolution plan, shall be subject to approval by the Authorities concerned. As regards to the reliefs sought, the Corporate Debtor has to approach the authorities concerned for such reliefs and we trust the authorities concerned will do the needful. “Approval of this plan by NCLT shall be deemed to be sufficient notice which may be required to be given to any person for such matter and no further notice shall be required to be given” as per the view taken by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Ghanashyam Mishra.21

21 Ghanashyam Mishra and Sons Private Limited Versus Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company Limited in Civil Appeal No.8129/2019 with Civil Appeal No.1554/2021 and 1550-1553/2021, decided on 13.04.2021.: (2021) 9 SCC 657

20
