RCom Files Curative Petition Challenging Supreme Court Spectrum Insolvency Ruling
Reliance Communications' resolution professional has filed a curative petition in the Supreme Court seeking to recall its February ruling that telecom spectrum cannot be treated as an asset under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). The petition argues that this decision undermines lenders' recovery prospects, strips banks of collateral, and creates a sector-specific exception with broader implications for other industries. It also challenges the Department of Telecommunications' actions of invoking bank guarantees and terminating spectrum allocation, citing paid dues and procedural concerns.
