The company may now work closely with the IRP to explore potential solutions and devise a resolution plan acceptable to all parties involved.

The decision by the NCLT reflects the tribunal's commitment to upholding transparency and accountability in corporate governance. By appointing an IRP, the NCLT aims to facilitate a fair and equitable resolution process that ensures the interests of creditors, homebuyers, and other stakeholders are duly protected.
