2022 (9) TMI 224 - AT - Insolvency and BankruptcySeeking direction to Resolution Professional to disclose item wise insolvency resolution process costs - calling for entire records of the Resolution Professional maintained with respect to the present petition - direction to Resolution Professional to follow the steps needed under Section 18 and Section 20(2)(a) of the IBC including Forensic Audit Report before proposing liquidation of Corporate Debtor - HELD THAT:- In the present case, the CIRP had commenced on 19.12.2019 and after more than two years, resolution was passed on 28.06.2022 for liquidation. The Application which was filed by the Appellant on the very next day of passing of the resolution was indirectly for challenging the liquidation. The Appellant who is a minority shareholder in the CoC cannot resist the passing of the resolution. The Adjudicating Authority has rightly rejected the application filed under Section 18 of Code and Regulation 34A, which was not to be entertained. The Appellant asked Resolution Professional to disclose item wise insolvency resolution process costs in such manner as required by the Board (IBBI). Question of cost and its approval lays in the domain of the CoC. The CoC may ratify, modify or set aside the cost claimed. These issued may be decided in the meeting of the CoC and are not to be examined by the Adjudicating Authority even before the CoC takes a decision. It shall be always open for the appellant to raise issue regarding the cost in the meeting of the Committee of Creditors. Appeal dismissed.
