The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Mumbai, has approved a resolution plan for Nirmal Lifestyle (Mulund) Private Limited in the past week, enabling the completion of a delayed residential project and providing relief to affected homebuyers. The resolution plan was submitted by Mantra Properties and Developers Private Limited and received unanimous approval from the Committee of Creditors (CoC). Advertisement
The approved plan addresses an aggregate debt of approximately INR 1,491 crore and includes provisions to safeguard the interests of 234 homebuyers associated with the ‘Nirmal Olympia’ project in Mulund. These homebuyers were linked to a partnership firm related to the corporate debtor but did not have formal standing in the corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP).
The insolvency proceedings were initiated only against Nirmal Lifestyle (Mulund) Private Limited, which held a 99.9% stake in the partnership firm developing the project. As a result, homebuyers associated with the partnership entity were unable to submit claims directly to the resolution professional, creating complexities in the resolution process.
Despite these constraints, the resolution framework incorporated provisions to address the liabilities of the partnership firm alongside those of the corporate debtor. The project land had been mortgaged to secured creditors, further adding to the intricacies of the resolution process.
The resolution was facilitated by InCorp Restructuring Services LLP, acting through its resolution professional Amit Karia. He indicated that the case required alignment of multiple stakeholders, including creditors and homebuyers who were not formally part of the insolvency proceedings, to achieve a viable outcome.
The Committee of Creditors, comprising institutional lenders including Beacon Trusteeship Limited, acting on behalf of Edelweiss Asset Reconstruction Company, and Assets Care and Reconstruction Enterprise Limited, approved the plan with 100% voting share, indicating consensus on the proposed resolution.
The approved plan enables the continuation and completion of the residential project, addressing delays that had affected homebuyers for several years. It also reflects the application of insolvency mechanisms to resolve complex real estate cases involving multiple entities and stakeholder groups.
The case highlights evolving approaches within the insolvency framework, particularly in situations where project structures involve both corporate and partnership entities. By extending the scope of resolution beyond the immediate corporate debtor, the process has provided a pathway for addressing homebuyer interests in a legally constrained environment.
