The case involves an appeal against the rejection of a petition under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) and upheld by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT). The appellants, financial creditors, sought to initiate Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against the respondent, a corporate debtor, due to defaults in repayment. The NCLT dismissed the petition, directing the respondent to settle claims within three months, a decision affirmed by the NCLAT. The appellants challenged this dismissal, arguing that the NCLT and NCLAT acted beyond their jurisdiction by directing settlement instead of adjudicating on the default.
The appellants, acting as financial creditors, filed a petition under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) to initiate Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against M/s Bharath Hi Tech Builders Pvt. Ltd., the respondent, due to defaults in repayment. The genesis of the case stems from a Master Agreement to Sell, where the respondent was to develop agricultural land and pay interest to purchasers. A Syndicate Loan Agreement was also entered into to raise funds. The NCLT declined to admit the petition, directing the respondent to settle claims within three months, a decision upheld by the NCLAT. The appellants challenged this, arguing the NCLT and NCLAT exceeded their jurisdiction by directing settlement instead of adjudicating on the default.
