The Ex-Resolution Professional of M/s. Bheema Cements Limited questioned the NCLT Hyderabad Bench's order dated 05.02.2026, which rejected IA No. 252/2026, seeking restoration and revival of the CIRP process.

## Facts

The Corporate Debtor was placed under CIRP by order dated 09.07.2018.

The Appellant/Applicant initially withdrew the liquidation application due to a revised payment schedule but later filed a Restoration Application No.1/2025.
