Which tribunal ruled that the Committee of Creditors (CoC) cannot alter an approved resolution plan to reallocate funds of dissenting creditors?
NCLATThe National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) clarified that once a resolution plan is approved by the Committee of Creditors (CoC), its financial distribution mechanism cannot be modified—especially to the detriment of dissenting creditors. This ruling came in response to an appeal by Bank of Baroda regarding the insolvency of Reliance Communications Infrastructure Ltd (RCIL). The CoC had approved a resolution plan submitted by a Jio subsidiary with a 67.97% vote share in August 2021. NCLAT emphasized that while the CoC exercises commercial wisdom in approving plans, such wisdom cannot justify post-approval alterations that undermine the original terms agreed upon by all creditors.
