NCLAT held that we are convinced that the ground projected for exclusion of the lockdown restriction period from 25th March, 2020 till 15th September, 2020 has substance and same deserves to be allowed, so as to make the resolution process meaningful and result oriented. We accordingly allow this appeal and set aside the impugned order with direction that the period commencing from 25th March, 2020 till 15th September, 2020 shall be excluded while computing the period of 180 days for the purpose of bringing the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process to its logical conclusion.
