Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interplay between the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985 (SICA) and the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, emphasizing the binding nature of orders from the Company Court and the Appellate Authority for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (A.A.I.F.R.). The Court criticized the High Court for disregarding these valid orders and for permitting the sale of assets without proper consideration of the ongoing proceedings before the B.I.F.R. The judgment underscores the need for adherence to statutory provisions and the importance of maintaining the status quo in such cases.
