Regulations, shall be deemed to be denied or rejected.
33. 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) of
MUMBAI BENCH- I IA(IBC)(Plan)/1/MB/2026
Page 23 of 25
the Code. 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 of the Code 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) of the Code when the Resolution Plan does
not conform to the stated requirements.
34. 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) and 39 (4) of the CIRP 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.
Order:
35. The Resolution Plan is hereby approved. It shall become effective from
this date and shall form part of this order with the following directions:
i. It shall be binding on the Corporate Applicant, its employees,
members, creditors, including the Central Government, any State
Government or any local authority to whom a debt in respect of
the payment of dues arising under any law for the time being in
force is due, guarantors and other stakeholders involved in the
Resolution Plan.
ii. The approval of the Resolution Plan shall not be construed as
waiver of any statutory obligations/liabilities of the Corporate
Applicant and shall be dealt by the appropriate Authorities in
accordance with law. Any waiver sought in the Resolution Plan,
shall be subject to approval by the Authorities concerned in light
of the Judgment of Supreme Court in Ghanshyam Mishra and Sons
Private Limited v/s. Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company
MUMBAI BENCH- I IA(IBC)(Plan)/1/MB/2026

dues upto approval of Resolution plan in terms of the approved
