Restructuring & Insolvency
Restructuring and insolvency law deals with financial distress situations faced by companies, businesses, and individuals, governed primarily by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), 2016, along with other applicable laws and regulations. These matters require strategic planning, legal expertise, and timely action to protect stakeholder interests and maximize value.
Our firm provides comprehensive legal assistance in insolvency resolution, debt restructuring, and liquidation proceedings, representing financial creditors, operational creditors, corporate debtors, and other stakeholders with a solution-oriented approach.
Legal Framework & Process
Insolvency proceedings under the IBC are initiated before the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) for corporate entities and Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) for individuals and partnership firms. The process typically begins with the filing of an application for initiation of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) or insolvency proceedings.
Once admitted, a moratorium is declared, and an Insolvency Resolution Professional (IRP/RP) is appointed to manage the affairs of the debtor. The Committee of Creditors (CoC) is formed, and resolution plans are invited and evaluated. If no viable resolution plan is approved, the entity may proceed into liquidation.
Our legal services cover all stages of this process, including:
- Filing and defending insolvency applications (Sections 7, 9, and 10 of IBC)
- Advisory on initiation of CIRP and pre-insolvency strategies
- Representation before NCLT, NCLAT, DRT, and other forums
- Drafting and vetting of resolution plans
- Assistance in CoC meetings and negotiations
- Liquidation proceedings and asset distribution
- Appeals and related litigation
