The Supreme Court examined the procedural and substantive aspects of the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). The case involved the approval of a resolution plan by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) and its subsequent disapproval by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT). The Court analyzed whether the appellate tribunal's decision was justified and upheld the statutory scheme of the IBC, emphasizing the importance of the resolution process for insolvency resolution. The Court ultimately clarified the scope of appellate review and upheld the authority of the NCLAT in such matters.
