Supreme Court Rules Lender Influencing Debtor's Policies Is Related Party, Cannot Join CoC
The Supreme Court ruled that a lender who influences the corporate debtor's policy decisions is considered a related party under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). Consequently, such a lender cannot be a member of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) during insolvency proceedings. This decision clarifies the eligibility criteria for CoC membership to ensure impartiality in the resolution process.
