The Adjudicating Authority based its decision on the judgment of this Appellate Tribunal, arguing that the decree-holder does not change its original character as a Real Estate Allottee. Furthermore, it held that in this case of a single allotment, the threshold requirement under the second proviso to Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549806\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">7(1)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IBC<\/a> was not met.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The appellant challenged the Adjudicating Authority&#8217;s order citing <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Sushil Ansal<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Ashok Tripathi<\/span>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/tdVRdjCe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2020 SCC OnLine NCLAT 680<\/a>, where this Tribunal clarified the concept of &#8216;financial debt&#8217; under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549784\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5(8)(f)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IBC<\/a>. It was argued that the appellant should be considered a financial creditor due to the commercial effect of the transaction. The respondent cited <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Vishal Chelani<\/span> (Supra), where the issue in hand is covered.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted that Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">238<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IBC<\/a> contains a non-obstante clause, giving overriding effect to its provisions, and, therefore, the provisions of the IBC take precedence over RERA. The Court found that the distinction made by the Resolution Professional was artificial and amounted to &#8220;hyper-classification,&#8221; which contravened Article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001574870\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">14<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726967\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Constitution of India<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The NCLAT concurred with <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Vishal Chelani<\/span> (Supra) where the Supreme Court clarified that once an allottee seeks remedies under the RERA Act and opts for a refund of money, they are still considered homebuyers and can seek remedies under RERA. The distinction made between homebuyers who opt for a refund and those who do not is considered inequitable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The NCLAT upheld the rejection of the Section 7 application and held that the status of an allottee does not change, and one allottee cannot trigger insolvency proceedings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The present appeal was dismissed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Dheeraj Raikhy<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style:
