¶28

Interest (EoI) in Form G on 12.06.2019, inviting prospective bidders to submit their EoI. There was no reply to the said EoI issued and hence the Applicant called for fourth COC meeting on 28.06.2019.

¶112

Resolution Plan by the Authority, if it is satisfied that the Resolution Plan as approved by the CoC under section 30(4) meets the requirements provided under section 30(2) of the Code. Thus, it is the duty of the Adjudicating Authority to satisfy itself that the Resolution Plan as approved by the CoC meets the above requirements.

¶113

On perusal of the Resolution Plan, it is observed that the Resolution Plan provides for the following:

¶114

Payment of CIRP Cost as specified u/s 30(2)(a) of the Code.

¶115

a) Repayment of Debts of Operational Creditors as specified u/s 30(2)(b) of the Code.

¶122

The RP has filed Compliance Certificate in Form-H along with the Plan. On perusal the same is found to be in order. The Resolution Plan includes a statement under regulation 38(1A) of The Regulations as to how it has dealt with the interest of the stakeholders in compliance with the Code and the Regulations.

¶123

The Resolution Plan has been approved by the CoC in the with 100% votes in terms of Section 30(4) of the Code.

¶124

In K Sashidhar v. Indian Overseas Bank & Others (in Civil Appeal No.10673/2018 decided on 05.02.2019) the Hon’ble Apex Court held that if the CoC had approved the Resolution Plan by requisite percent of voting share, then as per section 30(6) of the Code, it is imperative for the Resolution Professional to submit the same to the Adjudicating Authority (NCLT). On receipt of such a proposal, the Adjudicating Authority is required to satisfy itself that the Resolution Plan as approved by CoC meets the requirements specified in Section 30(2). The Hon’ble Court observed that the role of the NCLT is ‘no more and no less’. The Hon’ble Court further held that the discretion of the Adjudicating Authority is circumscribed by Section 31 and is limited to scrutiny of the Resolution Plan “as approved” by the requisite percent of voting share of financial creditors. Even in that enquiry, the grounds on which the Adjudicating Authority can reject the Resolution Plan is in reference to matters specified in Section 30(2) when the Resolution Plan does not conform to the stated requirements.

¶125

In CoC of Essar Steel (Civil Appeal No. 8766-67 of 2019 decided on 15.11.2019) the Hon’ble Apex Court clearly laid down that the Adjudicating Authority would not have power to modify the Resolution

¶126

¶127

IN THE NATIONAL COMPANY LAW TRIBUNAL, MUMBAI BENCH, COURT II M.A. NO. 3969/MB/C-II/2019 In C.P. (IB) No. 3603/MB/C-II/2018

¶128

Plan which the CoC in their commercial wisdom have approved. In para 42 Hon’ble Court observed as under:

¶129

“Thus, it is clear that the limited judicial review available, which can in no circumstance trespass upon a business decision of the majority of the Committee of Creditors, has to be within the four corners of section 30(2) of the Code, insofar as the Adjudicating Authority is concerned, and section 32 read with section 61(3) of the Code, insofar as the Appellate Tribunal is concerned, the parameters of such review having been clearly laid down in K. Sashidhar (supra).”

¶130

23.In view of the discussions and the law thus settled, the instant Resolution Plan meets the requirements of Section 30(2) of the Code and Regulations 37, 38, 38(1A) and 39 (4) of the Regulations. The Resolution Plan is not in contravention of any of the provisions of Section 29A of the Code and is in accordance with law. We are thus inclined to dispose of the Application in the following terms. Hence Ordered.
