Developers Pvt. Ltd. based on an application filed by 67 homebuyers as financial creditors. The CIRP was admitted by the NCLT, Mumbai, vide order dated 07-03-2024, and public announcements were made accordingly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The respondent-Resolution Professional (RP) was appointed and the Committee of Creditors (CoC) was constituted. Four resolution plans were received, and in the CoC meeting held on 25-09-2024, the resolution plan submitted by La Mer Developers Ltd. and Neel Builders &amp; Developers was approved with 83.46% voting share.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The appellant filed the three appeals challenging the rejection of his application under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549777\" target=\"_blank\">43<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\">IBC<\/a> for avoidance of preferential transactions, rejection of his objections to the Resolution Plan and the approval of the Resolution Plan itself.<\/p>\n<h3>Moot Point<\/h3>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<li>\n<p>Whether a single homebuyer has the locus standi to challenge the approval of a resolution plan by the CoC?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Whether the application filed under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549777\" target=\"_blank\">43<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\">IBC<\/a> by the homebuyer maintainable?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Whether the CIRP and approval of the resolution plan suffered from procedural impropriety or collusion?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>NCLAT&#8217;s Observations<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%; text-decoration: underline;\">Locus Standi of the Appellant<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The NCLAT reaffirmed the legal position that homebuyers form a class of financial creditors and are represented by an Authorised Representative. The NCLAT asserted that individual homebuyers do not have independent locus standi to challenge the resolution plan once approved by the majority of the CoC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The NCLAT noted that the Adjudicating authority held that <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">&#8220;individual homebuyers may have divergent views but ultimately they vote as a class and individual homebuyers cannot claim to be &#8216;dissenting homebuyers&#8217;.&#8221;<\/span> The NCLT further stated that <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8220;the Applicants being disgruntled homebuyers in a minority position have no option but to &#8216;sail along&#8217; or &#8216;drag along&#8217; with overwhelming majority which has accepted the resolution plan.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The NCLAT heavily relied on the <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Jaypee Kensington Boulevard Apartments Welfare Assn.<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">NBCC (India) Ltd.<\/span>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/mS18sJNG\" target=\"_blank\">(2022) 1 SCC 401<\/a>, where the Supreme Court held that <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">&#8220;there is absolutely no scope for any particular person standing within that class to suggest any dissension as regards the vote over the resolution plan.&#8221;<\/span> The NCLAT held that individual dissenting homebuyers cannot override the collective commercial wisdom of the majority.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 2%; text-decoration: underline;\">Application under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549777\" target=\"_blank\">43<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\">IBC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">On the Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549777\" target=\"_blank\">43<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\">IBC<\/a> application regarding preferential transactions, the NCLAT held the application to be frivolous as Section 43 clearly mandates that only the Resolution Professional or Liquidator may file for avoidance of preferential transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 2.12mm; margin-left: 12.7mm; margin-top: 2.12mm;font-weight: bold; Times New Roman&quot;;\">&#8220;A plain reading of Section 43 of the Code makes it amply clear that an application under that Section can only be filed by an Insolvency Professional&#8230; and none else.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">While upholding the rejection of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549777\" target=\"_blank\">43<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\">IBC<\/a> application by NCLT, the NCLAT deleted the cost of &#8377;50,000\/- imposed by the NCLT as the appellant was a single homebuyer and not a habitual litigant.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 2%; text-decoration: underline;\">Approval of the Resolution Plan<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The NCLAT found no infirmity in the plan and noted that the plan provided settlement through delivery of units to both claimants and non-claimants (all 297 unit-holders), and fulfilled all the requirements under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001549763\" target=\"_blank\">30(2)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002802178\" target=\"_blank\">IBC<\/a>.
