NCLAT Reprimands RP For Seeking Police Help For Security Of Assets Of Corporate Debtor Instead Of Private Security

Case Title: RP Modern Syntex (India) Ltd. v Supdt. of Police Anandpura, Vadodra Gujarat & Ors.

Case No.: Company Appeal (AT) Insolvency No. 682 of 2023

The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (“NCLAT”), New Delhi Bench, comprising of Justice Ashok Bhushan (Chairperson) and Shri Naresh Salecha (Technical Member), has held for security of private property of the Corporate Debtor, the Resolution Professional cannot seek deployment of police at site. Instead, the Resolution Professional is required to hire security personnel for the said purpose and make payment to them.

“We are of the view that Resolution Professional should know that what prayers may be granted by the Adjudicating Authority and prayers which were made by the Resolution Professional requesting the Adjudicating Authority to direct deployment of police/gunmen at the site was wholly uncalled for. For security of private property, the RP has to hire security personnel for which payment has to be made for them. Prayers in the Applications were wholly inappropriate and has rightly been not considered.”
