NCLAT Delhi: Trademark Hypothecated For Higher Amount And Assignment For Lower Amount Can't Be Sole Criteria To Treat It As 'Undervalued Transaction'

Live Law  

The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal New Delhi, comprising Mr. Justice Rakesh Kumar Jain and Mr. Naresh Salecha held that the mere fact that the trademark was hypothecated for a higher amount and subsequently assigned for a lower amount would not be the sole criteria for deeming it an undervalued transaction. Further, it also prayed for an Order clarifying that with the approval of the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process, no presumption may be drawn as to any authorization or right emerging from the aforesaid approval that gives the right to the Corporate Debtor, or the successful H1, to continue to use the Trade Mark 'Gloster' or the term "GLOSTER" as part of the Corporate Debtor's corporate name. NCLAT Verdict: The NCLAT Delhi allowed the application and held that the mere fact that the trademark was hypothecated for a higher amount and subsequently assigned for a lower amount would not be the sole criteria for deeming it an undervalued transaction. As a result, the mere fact that the trademark was hypothecated for a higher amount and subsequently assigned for a lower amount would not be the sole criteria for deeming it an undervalued transaction.
