Application U/S 12A Of IBC Can Be Withdrawn By Resolution Professional Before It Is Heard Or Allowed: NCLAT

Live Law  

The NCLAT New Delhi bench of Justice Ashok Bhushan, Barun Mitra and Arun Baroka has held that CIRP withdrawal application can be withdrawn by Resolution Professional before the application is heard and allowed. Thereafter, the MHIL was informed by the RP about the decision taken by the CoC regarding CIRP withdrawal and that an application under section 12A had also been filed. The Resolution Professional filed a purshish before the Adjudicating Authority for withdrawal of the application filed under Section 12A on the ground that MHIL's claim being admitted, CoC was required to be re-constituted. It was also argued that the Resolution Professional was only a representative of the Operational Creditor and Resolution Professional had no jurisdiction and authority to withdraw the application under Section 12A. The tribunal further opined that “the withdrawal of the application under section 12A is attributed to a subsequent event that happened after August 16, 2024 namely the admission of the claims of the MHIL on September 16, 2024 which was previous to the hearing or approval of the section 12A application.The RP has rightly brought into the notice of the Adjudicating Authority on 17.09.2024 when application came for hearing that claim has been admitted and CoC has to be re-constituted.” Finally, the tribunal concluded that “we, thus, are fully satisfied that the Resolution Professional had every jurisdiction to file purshish to withdraw of the application.
