There is no regulation or law which provide that the Resolution Professional should open the plan in presence of CoC and PRAs. Learned counsel for the Respondent No.1 has been unable to show any provision of law which require that the Resolution Professional shall open the plan in presence of CoC and PRAs. The order passed by the Adjudicating Authority is unsustainable - In result, Appeal is allowed.
