IBBI Proposes Enhanced Safeguards for Personal Guarantor Insolvency Cases
India's Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board (IBBI) is proposing stricter safeguards for insolvency cases involving personal guarantors of corporate debtors. Key proposals include excluding related parties of guarantors from voting on repayment plans, mandatory independent asset valuations, and detailed scrutiny of questionable transactions such as preferential or fraudulent dealings. These changes aim to align personal guarantor insolvency processes with corporate insolvency standards and enhance creditor protections, prompted in part by high-profile cases like Essel Group's insolvency proceedings.
