NCLAT rejected the Appellant's claim against the Corporate Debtor, finding no substantive evidence to support the alleged financial transactions. The tribunal determined that the Joint Development Agreement was invalid due to the disqualification of the director who signed it under Section 164(2)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013. The Appellant failed to provide conclusive documentation proving direct payments or establishing a legitimate debt claim. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed without merit, upholding the Resolution Professional's decision to not admit the Appellant's claim during the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process.
