NCLAT held that we agree with the findings given by the Adjudicating Authority that the Appellant has not produced any agreement between the Appellant and the Respondent that any interest would be payable by the Respondent/Corporate Debtor against the alleged loan. Further, the Adjudicating Authority rightly come to the conclusion that in order to qualify the debt to be a ‘financial debt’, it is necessary that the amount advanced to the Corporate Debtor is against the time value of money, which is totally absent in the present matter. Further, it was held that since the Appellant is not a financial creditor as the Appellant has not disbursed money against the consideration for the time value. Accordingly, the claim of the Appellant is not a ‘financial debt’ within the meaning of Section 5(8) of the IBC. Keeping in view of the aforenoted, we do not find any merit in the Appeal to interfere with the order impugned passed by the Adjudicating Authority.
