NCLT says it can't direct ED to de-freeze bank account

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) has stated that it lacks the authority to direct the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to de-freeze bank accounts. The NCLT clarified its limited jurisdiction in matters involving the ED, emphasizing that the ED operates under separate legal provisions. The tribunal's decision highlights the distinct roles of these two bodies in the legal framework. The ruling ensures that the NCLT does not overstep its boundaries and respects the ED's investigative powers. This decision clarifies the division of powers between the ED and the NCLT.
