Advocates Act, 1961<\/a> — Ss. 16<\/a> and 23(5)<\/a> — Designation of Advocates as Senior Advocates — Validity of:<\/span> The classification of advocates as Senior Advocates and other advocates under S. 16 is a valid classification made by the legislature.

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016<\/a> — Ss. 7<\/a> and 238-A<\/a> — Limitation period for filing application invoking CIRP, in cases where recovery certificate is issued by DRT:<\/span> Life of a decree is twelve years for enforcement as per Art. 136 of the Limitation Act. In the event a financial creditor wants to pursue a recovery certificate obtained under the 1993 Act as a deemed decree, he would get twelve years’ time under Art. 136 of the Limitation Act, and not just three years as held in Kotak Mahindra Bank<\/i>, (2022) 9 SCC 186<\/a> vide application of Art. 137 of the Limitation Act. This is so, as the extent of operation of a recovery certificate has been construed in Kotak Mahindra Bank<\/i>, (2022) 9 SCC 186<\/a> itself, to go beyond filing of winding-up petition alone. It would retain the character of a decree to lodge a claim in an IBC proceeding. [Tottempudi Salalith<\/i> v. SBI<\/i>, (2024) 1 SCC 24<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
