petition in the second week of July 2019 asking that Jaypee Infratech Ltd not be put into
liquidation since doing so would result in "irreparable loss" for thousands of homebuyers. The

For a period of two weeks, the SC has imposed a "status quo," thereby preventing further bids
for the heavily indebted Jaypee Infratech. The SC cited the necessity for time to consider the
changes to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code as its justification. The cash-strapped Jaypee
Infratech was subject to new bidding on July 30, 2019, but its promoter Jaypee Group was not
permitted to participate in the auction. The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code was amended by
the Lok Sabha on August 1, 2019, according to the government, who claimed that the goal of

Reassessing transactions involving third-party securities: Given the court's justification for
dismissing the JIL Mortgage, it's possible that resolution experts will reevaluate whether the
NCLT should be used in Section 43-based bankruptcy procedures. It is also important to note
that the Supreme Court left open the legal issues of whether or not Sections 44 or 66 of the
IBC applied to the JIL Mortgage, leaving it up to resolution professionals to decide whether or
not third party security transactions should be evaluated in light of these provisions (in

Ramalingam Sudhakar, and Shri. L. N. Gupta, an honorary member, approved the resolution

ordered that the Monitoring Committee oversee and keep an eye on the daily process of
building new units and developing relevant infrastructure while submitting a monthly progress
The CoC accepted the Resolution plan with 98.55% of the vote (Para 14, Page 11).
The plan was challenged by YEIDA (Yamuna Motorway Industrial Development Authority),
ICICI Bank, JAL (Jaiprakash Associates Limited), and Sh. Manoj Gaur.

Following its consideration of all of JAL's arguments, NCLT reached the following
conclusion.
Referring to the observations made by the Hon. Supreme Court in the Jaypee Kensington
(Supra) case regarding the role of the adjudicating authority in maximising asset value:
In accordance with the Code's design, the determination of whether a particular resolution
plan and its recommendations will result in the asset value being maximised or not will always
be subjective, and the Committee of Creditors will be the only group to investigate and make
this decision. The adjudicatory process, whether by the Adjudicating Authority or the
Appellate Authority, cannot enter into any quantitative analysis to adjudicate as to whether the
prescription of the resolution plan results in the maximisation of the value of assets or not
when the Committee of Creditors takes the decision in its commercial wisdom and by the
necessary majority and there is no valid legal reason to question the decision so taken by the
Committee of Creditors. A case of interference in the decision made by the Committee of
Creditors in its business wisdom is not made out by the broad representations and complaints
