## Summary

### Background

This is a Company Appeal (AT) (Insolvency) No. 1256 of 2022 filed against the order dated 27th September, 2022 passed by the Adjudicating Authority, which admitted a Section 7 application. An application, I.A. No. 3927 of 2022, was filed to bring the terms of settlement between the parties on record. The Financial Creditor's counsel submitted that a settlement had been entered into, requiring the Appellant to make payments in two tranches. The counsel further submitted that Rs. 3 Lakhs had already been paid to the IRP.

## Facts

The Appellant, Jayeh Tanna, filed an appeal against an order passed by the Adjudicating Authority that admitted a Section 7 application. During the proceedings, the parties reached a settlement, and the terms of this settlement were brought before the court. The Financial Creditor's counsel stated that the Appellant was to make payments in two tranches, and Rs. 3 Lakhs had already been paid to the IRP. The Committee of Creditors had not yet been constituted. The key fact is the settlement reached between the parties after the admission of the Section 7 application but before the constitution of the Committee of Creditors, which influenced the court's decision to set aside the Adjudicating Authority's order.
