The resolution plan fails and the entire repayment time schedule gets disturbed, requiring creditors to report the failure to the Adjudicating Authority and seek liquidation orders.

Q

Under Section 33 of IBC, what must the Adjudicating Authority do if no resolution plan is received before expiry of the resolution process?

A

It shall pass an order for liquidation of the corporate debtor.

The creditors must report the failure of the plan to the Adjudicating Authority (AA) and obtain orders for liquidation.

A

Section 34 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016.
