Simultaneous CIRP Against Principal Borrower and Corporate Guarantor Permitted Under IBC | NCLAT Confirms Section 12A Inapplicable Post-Liquidation : NCLAT
The NCLAT has ruled that corporate insolvency resolution proceedings can proceed concurrently against both the principal borrower and its corporate guarantor, even when liquidation has been ordered against the guarantor. This clarifies that Section 12A of the IBC cannot be invoked to halt liquidation after resolution failure, reinforcing creditor rights and closing a key loophole in multi-debtor insolvency cases.
