32. When we undertake a cursory glance at the Loan Agreement, placed at page 126 of the Appeal Paper Book, we find that the date of signing of the Loan Agreement is shown as 20.12.2007 on first page of the said agreement while on the last page of the same document, the date of execution has been recorded as 04.08.2007. The stamp paper is dated 07.12.2007 while the date of execution of Loan Agreement is mentioned as 04.08.2007. Further, we find that Clause 1 of the Loan Agreement postulates that the alleged amount of Rs. 30,00,000/- was disbursed on 20.06.2007. Even the purported Addendum to the Loan Agreement allegedly dated 21.12.2007 which supposedly corrected the inconsistencies was surprisingly not filed by the Appellant at the time of submission of Claims Form before the RP or before the Adjudicating Authority Such discrepancies clearly undermine the credibility of the Loan Agreement and cannot be disregarded and overlooked as an inadvertent or clerical errors. This clearly betrays signs of likely interpolation, backdating and fabrication of the Loan Agreement document. In Company Appeal (AT) (Insolvency) Nos. 1734 & 1735 of 2025 the given circumstances we concur in the findings of the Adjudicating Authority at para 13 of the impugned order that: "In view of these findings, we are of the considered opinion that the claim is devoid of merit, unsupported by any cogent material, and appears to have been raised as an afterthought. Accordingly, the claim stands rejected."
