Insolvency and Bankruptcy Laws

An effective and fast insolvency/bankruptcy procedure will allow businesses to be sold/wound down while there is value remaining in the business, allowing for maximized recovery and better addressal of interests of various parties involved.

With the above objective, India notified a new code - the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code, 2016. Prior to the enactment of the Code, earlier insolvency & bankruptcy of individuals, firms or corporations in India was governed by a multi layered process which was stipulated under several legislations resulting in adjudication before multiple fora and eroding the economic value of the company. The Code is a big step towards strengthening investors’ confidence in the Indian debt market.
