The present proceeding arises from a Suo-Motu cognizance taken by the Adjudicating Authority regarding a show cause notice issued to Mr. Manoj Kumar Singh, the erstwhile IRP of M/s. Palm Developers Pvt. Ltd, concerning why contempt proceedings should not be initiated against him for violating directions given in an order dated 07.09.2020. The Operational Creditor, M/s. Ram Niwas & Sons, had filed an application for initiating Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against the Corporate Debtor, M/s. Palm Developers Private Limited. The Adjudicating Authority had initiated the CIRP and appointed Mr. Manoj Kumar Singh as the IRP. During the CIRP's pendency, the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) sought to replace Mr. Manoj Kumar Singh as the IRP.
M/s. Ram Niwas & Sons, an Operational Creditor, initiated Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against M/s. Palm Developers Private Limited, the Corporate Debtor, under Section 9 of IBC, 2016. The Adjudicating Authority appointed Mr. Manoj Kumar Singh as the Interim Resolution Professional (IRP). Subsequently, the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) filed an application to replace Mr. Singh.
