IBC Section 30(5) | Financial Creditor as Resolution Applicant Permitted to Vote on Own Plan : NCLAT Overrules NCLT Conflict of Interest Bar
NCLAT clarifies that a financial creditor submitting a resolution plan under the IBC is not barred from voting on its own plan, rejecting the NCLT's conflict of interest rationale. The ruling reinforces the commercial wisdom of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) and expands the scope of eligible resolution applicants, impacting insolvency proceedings where creditors seek to revive distressed companies.
