CIRP time limit further extended in the matter of Jaiprakash Associates Ltd & Anr. Vs. IDBI Bank Ltd. & Anr.- Supreme Court
The Apex Court held that in view of the legislative changes referred to above, we are of the considered opinion that we need to and must exercise our plenary powers to make an attempt to revive the corporate debtor (AIL), lest it is exposed to liquidation process under Chapter III of Part II of the I & B Code. We are inclined to do so because the project has been implemented in part and out of over 20,000 home buyers, a substantial number of them have been put in possession and the remaining work is in progress and in some cases at an advanced stage of completion. In this backdrop, it would be in the interest of all concerned to accept a viable plan reflecting the recent legislative changes.
