Section 2(1)(c)(xviii) Commercial Courts Act | Suit for Unpaid Transport Services Remains Commercial Dispute Despite Prior IBC Settlement : Calcutta HC
The Calcutta High Court has ruled that a suit for recovery of unpaid transport charges is a commercial dispute under the Commercial Courts Act, even after a settlement during IBC proceedings. This clarifies that IBC settlements do not extinguish the commercial nature of underlying contractual claims, ensuring businesses can pursue recovery through specialized commercial courts without procedural evasion.
