NCLT Rejects Uniton Infra's Insolvency Plea Against Shapoorji Pallonji Over Rs 4.31 Crore Claim
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) rejected Uniton Infra's petition to initiate insolvency proceedings against Shapoorji Pallonji Co over a Rs 4.31 crore operational debt related to road resurfacing in Nellore. The tribunal ruled that one invoice fell within the COVID-19 exclusion period barring bankruptcy filings, while the remaining claim of Rs 89.60 lakh was below the Rs 1 crore statutory threshold. Shapoorji Pallonji disputed the claim, citing non-receipt of payments from the municipal corporation.
