Condonation of delay in filing appeals - The NCLAT made it clear that ignorance of the proceedings or the order does not extend the limitation period for filing an appeal. This decision reflects the IBC's emphasis on expediency and certainty in resolving insolvency matters, which is crucial for maintaining confidence in the insolvency resolution process and the stability of the financial and commercial systems. The Tribunal's reliance on authoritative legal precedents and its interpretation of the IBC provisions reinforce the principle that statutory rights of appeal must be exercised within the prescribed timelines to uphold the Code's objectives.
