Unstamped (or insufficiently stamped) documents have been litigated by parties under multiple acts. The Supreme Court tried to address the issue in N N Global. But the challenge still remains and mostly in insolvency proceedings where time is an essence, the unsettled law on the admissibility of unstamped agreements clogs tribunals. It is time for the legislature to intervene and find a solution. #indianlawyers #indianlaw #stampduty #agreements #disputes #litigation

The consistent emphasis by the judiciary on streamlining the concept of commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) in insolvency proceedings is indeed re-visited and innovated at every instance wherein the Hon’ble Courts are deliberating on any such question of law. A similar interpretation was again brought along by the Hon’ble National Company Law Appellate Tribunal wherein the concept of judicial review on the decisions undertaken by the CoC was again reviewed while keeping in mind the ambit provided under the Code and its regulations. Even though the Hon’ble Courts, in a plethora of its judgements, have established the fact that the decisions of the CoC are not subjected to judicial review, it has been consistently reiterated that the Hon’ble Courts cannot sideline the CoC’s actions in case the same were tainted with material irregularity and arbitrariness. It is germane that balancing the outreach of the judicial interpretation viz-a-viz the legislative intent cannot undermine the purpose of enacting the law and provide a blanket on the actions undertaken by the CoC members during a resolution process. - Shravan Chandrashekhar, Senior Associate. https://lnkd.in/gPjgsCxe #legalinsights #legalupdates #nclat #ibc #insolvency #UKCAandPartners #ukca

**Supreme Court Clarifies Jurisdiction for Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code Offenses** The Supreme Court recently provided much-needed clarity on the jurisdiction of courts handling offences under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). The case centred around whether a Sessions Court Judge could preside over such cases. The Court ruled in favor of "legislation by incorporation." This means amendments made to the Companies Act after the IBC's formation wouldn't affect the IBC's special court provisions. Sessions Court Judges have the authority to preside over IBC offence cases. This decision clarifies the authority of special courts in IBC matters and highlights the significance of interpreting legislative intent when incorporating provisions from other laws.
