## Summary

### Background

The case involves the insolvency resolution of Idzire Hospitality Private Limited under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. The Committee of Creditors (CoC) decided to liquidate the Corporate Debtor (CD) due to the lack of a viable resolution plan and the absence of business operations for the past three years. Several Interlocutory Applications (IAs) were filed and disposed of, including those related to the exclusion of a period from the CIRP process due to the IRP's disciplinary action, the appointment of a Resolution Professional (RP), and the initiation of liquidation. The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) issued a circular stating that the IRP/RP should not be appointed as liquidator when the CD goes into liquidation.
