Krishna Kumar Mintri vs Kamlesh Kumar Singhania & Anr on 27 February, 2019
7. From the aforesaid decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in 'Brilliant
Alloys Private Limited Vs. Mr. S. Rajagopal & Ors.', it is clear that Regulation 30A
cannot override the substantive provision of Section 12A. The Regulation has to
be read alongwith the provision in Section 12A, which contains no such
stipulation. No discrimination can be made for withdrawal of an application
under Section 7 or Section 9 on the ground that the application was filed before
a cutoff date or filed after a cutoff date. Such cutoff date has no nexus with the
objective which is to be achieved. The Adjudicating Authority having failed to
notice the aforesaid provisions issued long order discussing regulations and
provisions of the Code. The Adjudicating Authority should have allowed
application of withdrawal filed by the Applicant - Punjab National Bank, the
Committee of Creditors having approved the Settlement with 100% voting share.
