The NCLT has "admitted a CIRP application of Canara Bank," citing "default payment of a debt amount beyond ₹1 crore." This is a significant ruling that provides clarity on the legal standing of claims made by the EPFO during the corporate insolvency resolution process. The court's decision, which is a significant victory for the government, was made on the grounds that the company's claim was not supported by evidence. The ruling clarifies that a company can be held responsible for the misdeeds of another person.
