Supreme Court Reviews Personal Guarantee Issues in Insolvency Proceedings
The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code's (IBC) handling of personal guarantees faces scrutiny following the Subhash Chandra case, where a repayment plan of Rs 6 crore contrasts with admitted claims of Rs 22,007 crore. A five-member bench has stayed the plan, highlighting gaps in asset disclosure, creditor control, and vote legitimacy. The case raises questions about the effectiveness of personal guarantees and the need to strengthen mechanisms for verifying assets and ensuring fair creditor representation in insolvency proceedings.
