Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal filed by M/s Reliance Asset Reconstruction against the NCLAT's decision, which had upheld the NCLT's rejection of the application under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. The court found that the appellant failed to establish the existence of a financial debt owed by the corporate debtor, M/s Hotel Poonja International Pvt. Ltd., thereby affirming the lower courts' rulings. This judgment reinforces the stringent requirements for initiating insolvency proceedings under the IBC.
