The effectiveness of CIIRP post-Amendment will ultimately depend upon preventing disruptive pre-insolvency enforcement that frustrates restructuring efforts.

The IBC was never meant to be a code of private enforcement.

While the CLRP framework presents itself an progressive endeavor to introduce flexibility and efficiency into the insolvency regime, its current form contains several flaws that go to the root of the matter, compromising its efficacy.

The new amendment brings changes that are certainly going to be effective for the IBC. However, we must also not overlook the on-ground problems that might be created due to the changes in the code.

It bears no further reiteration that a proceeding under Sections 241–242 cannot be stifled by the commencement of CIRP or the approval of a resolution plan.
