Recently, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Amendment) Bill has been introduced in Lok Sabha. This bill has proposed another insolvency resolution mechanism for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, there are two mechanisms of insolvency resolution, namely, Pre-packaged Insolvency Resolution Process (PIRP) and Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP).<\/span><\/p>\n

Pre-pack will involve a direct agreement between creditors and the existing owners or outside investors instead of any public bidding process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to resolve debt of a distressed company, the financial creditors will agree to terms with the promoters or potential investor. Once done, the resolution plan has to be approved by NCLT.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The approval of at least 66% of financial creditors that are unrelated to corporate debtors would be required. Once submitted to NCLT, it can either accept or reject an application for pre-pack insolvency proceedings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Pre-packs over CIRP?<\/b><\/p>\n

In the case of CIRP, the major issue is time of resolution. This is due to prolonged litigation by promoters and potential bidders. The threshold is 270 days but the majority of cases have breached that threshold.<\/span><\/p>\n

The pre-pack is limited to a maximum of 120 days with only 90 days available to different stakeholders involved in order to bring a resolution plan before the NCLT.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another important difference is that in case of pre-packs, existing managers retain control while in case of CIRP, a resolution professional takes control of debtors as a representative of financial creditors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pre-packs areintroduced to help MSMEs to restructure their liabilities and start with a clean slate while providing protections. It will ensure that it can\u2019t be misused by companies to avoid making payments to creditors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Swiss Challenge<\/b><\/p>\n

The pre-pack mechanism allows for a \u2018Swiss challenge\u2019 to any resolution plan which involves less than full recovery of dues for operational creditors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under this challenge, a third party will be permitted to submit a resolution plan for the distressed company. The original applicant will be then left with two choices, either to match the improved resolution plan or let go of the investment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Challenges<\/b><\/p>\n

The challenges include that forensic audits will be important for cases where the same management has the control. Where haircuts are involved, such audits become important and negative report can be a roadblock for the resolution process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, the timeline will be difficult for lenders and distressed companies to meet.<\/span><\/p>\n

If outstanding debt is resolved through PIRP, the NPA status of the company\u2019s account with lenders may not be automatically upgraded under RBI guidelines. There is a need for the IBBI and RBI to find a middle ground on these regulations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, the pre-pack mechanism is effective to make the resolution process quick and it can be rolled out to all companies over time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
