## Summary

### Background

The appellant challenged two orders from the Adjudicating Authority (NCLT Chandigarh Bench) dated June 11, 2025.

This plan was initially rejected by the Committee of Creditors (CoC) on September 3, 2019, leading the Resolution Professional to file an application for the corporate debtor's liquidation.
