NCLAT: Resolution Plan Non-Implementation Leads to Liquidation
Imagine a company that's in financial trouble.
The law lets it make a plan to get better.
A company called Taguda made such a plan, but didn't follow through.
They needed approval from the RBI but took too long.
The court said they had to stick to the timeline or the company would be shut down.
Taguda failed to get the approvals in time, and the court decided the company would be closed down.
The court wants these plans to be quick so companies can recover.
NCLAT ruled on the non-implementation of a resolution plan under the IBC.
Taguda Pte Ltd. failed to implement the plan for Ushdev International Limited.
The primary reason for delay was pending approval from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).
NCLAT held that the Successful Resolution Applicant must adhere to statutory timelines.
The appeal was dismissed, and liquidation proceedings were directed.
