The Learned Counsel for the Appellant would submit that the Appellant be permitted to participate in IA No.3 (Plan)/2026 which is pending consideration of the Adjudicating Authority under Section 31 IBC.

    3. We do not consider that the Appellant need be permitted to participate in the proceeding in view of the order dated 30.06.2026. The Adjudicating Authority is required to take a fresh view of the Resolution Plan unhindered by its earlier observations made in the impugned order. If the Appellant is aggrieved by any ultimate outcome of the order to be pronounced by the Adjudicating Authority in IA No.3 (Plan)/ 2026 he has his remedy intact to oppose the same at appropriate time in appropriate forum. IA No.4522 of 2026 is disposed of.
