Section 99 Report

Circular No. No. IBBI/II/66/2024, Dated 12.02.2024

The resolution professional (RP) in an insolvency resolution process of a debtor under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (Code) examines the application filed under section 94 or 95 of the Code and submits a report to the Adjudicating Authority under section 99 of the Code, recommending for approval or rejection of the application.

Section 99 mandates the RP to share a copy of this report with the debtor or the creditor. The IBBI has observed that in certain cases, the RPs have not shared a copy of the report with both debtor and creditor, leading to a lack of equal information access among them.

Therefore, the IBBI has now advised that the RP shall provide a copy of the report to both the debtor and the creditor in all cases. This will ensure that the debtor and the creditor are well-informed about the evaluation and recommendations made by the RP, thereby promoting transparency and informed decision-making.
