It is submitted that CIRP need not to be allowed to continue for all the 20 projects rather it may be undertaken on projects basis HELD THAT:- From the status report submitted by the IRP, it is clear that IRP in his Report has listed 20 projects of the Corporate Debtor which also included Eco Village II Project for which the finance was given by the Union Bank of India who has filed the Application under Section 7 of the Code for initiation of the CIRP. By the admission of the Application under Section 7 of the Code by the Adjudicating Authority, CIRP has commenced against the Corporate Debtor and when CIRP has commenced against the Corporate Debtor, all projects which had been undertaken and under construction comes under CIRP. As per the IRP Status Report, IRP has taken a stock of situation by visiting the sites which are under construction. ‘CIRP’ has been initiated against the Corporate Debtor. ‘CIRP’ has commenced against all the projects of the Corporate Debtor. ‘CIRP’ encompasses all the assets of the Corporate Debtor including all Bank Accounts. The IRP has already been appointed and has taken steps by informing all concerned including Banks to add the name of IRP for operation of the Account - the consequence of ‘CIRP’ is that all assets of the Corporate Debtor come in the control and management of the IRP. All bank accounts are to be operated with the counter signature of the IRP. No amount from any account can be withdrawn without the counter signature and permission of the IRP. IRP under the IBC has responsibility to run the Corporate Debtor as a going concern. Further when Promoters are ready to extend all cooperation with all its staffs and employees to the IRP, we see no reason for not to direct the IRP to proceed with construction of all the projects under the overall supervision and control of the IRP. In ‘CIRP’ Process, Project-Wise Resolution to be started as a test to find out the success of such Resolution. Keeping an eye regarding construction and completion of the projects, it is opined that an Interim Order dated 12th April, 2022 staying the constitution of CoC be modified to the extent that CoC be constituted for the Eco Village II Project only with all Financial Creditors including Financial Creditors/Banks/Home Buyers.
