Provisions of IBC to override Special Economic Zone Act and Rules – Noida Special Economic Zone Authority, Ministry of Commerce & Industry Vs. Mr. Manish Agarwal RP of Shree Bhomika International Ltd- NCLAT New Delhi

NCLAT holds that it is well settled that Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code overrides other law and under Section 31 of the Code, the Resolution Plan approved by the CoC and meeting the requirements under Section 30(2) has to be approved by the Adjudicating Authority. Commercial Wisdom of the CoC with respect to viability and financial decision taken while evaluating the Resolution Plan has to prevail, unless the Plan approved by the CoC is in conflict with any provision of the law and the distribution mechanisation suppressed the interest of the stakeholders besides taking care of the maximisation of the value of the assets of the corporate debtor, judicial intervention would not be warranted. Additionally, in the instant case, the Resolution Plan has already been implemented a year ago and we do not wish to set the clock back.
