2017 (6) TMI 1129 - NATIONAL COMPANY LAW TRIBUNAL, AHMEDABADPetition under Section 9 of The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 - Resolution Professional appointment - Held that:- This Adjudicating Authority, by this order passed under sub-section (5) of Section 9 of the Code, is admitting this Petition. This Adjudicating Authority is also of the view that it is necessary to make a Reference to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India established under the Code to recommend the name of an Insolvency Professional, against whom no disciplinary proceedings are pending, to this Adjudicating Authority, within ten (10) days from the date of receipt of the Reference. Section 13 of the Code enjoins upon the Adjudicating Authority to exercise its discretion to pass an order to declare a moratorium for the purposes referred to in Section 14, to cause a public announcement of the initiation of corporate insolvency resolution and call for submission of claims as provided under Section 15 of the Code. Sub-section (2) of Section 13 says that public announcement shall be made immediately after the appointment of Interim Resolution Professional. In the case on hand, simultaneous with the admission order, this Adjudicating Authority is not going to appoint Interim Resolution Professional because the Applicant did not propose the name of Interim Resolution Professional. But, this Adjudicating Authority is going to appoint Interim Resolution Professional after the same is recommended by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India under Section 16(4) of the Code.
