Insolvency & Restructuring (IBC), Frequently Asked
Questions buyers ask before engaging.
Do you act for resolution applicants?
Yes. Resolution-plan drafting, due diligence on the corporate debtor, financial-bid construction, and CoC negotiations across NCLT benches in India.
How long does a typical CIRP take?
The IBC mandates 180 days extendable to 330 days. Practical timelines vary, expect 9-15 months for mid-market matters from admission to plan approval, longer where litigation or asset-encumbrance disputes intervene.
Can you handle out-of-court restructuring (pre-IBC)?
Yes. RBI-framework debt restructuring, one-time settlement (OTS) negotiations, inter-creditor agreements, and security re-structuring are often a better commercial path than formal CIRP and are routine pre-IBC work.
