A copy of the application has already been furnished to Mr. Arvind Bishwabandhu, learned counsel for the CoC. He has made submission that the amount approved by CoC is disputed. There is neither any affidavit filed nor any document placed on record to show any such dispute. In any case we refuse to accept that approved CoC minutes of meeting held on 29.04.2019, could be contradicted like this particularly when the Item No. 6 has been approved by overwhelming voting share of the CoC (page 41). Accordingly, we direct the CoC to comply with its own resolution and pay the balance amount as per the resolution dated 29.04.2019 passed in first meeting of CoC.

The application stands disposed of.

CA-381(PB)/2019:-

This is an application filed under Section 19(2) of the Code, requiring the Ex.-management to appear before the RP and co-operate. However, learned counsel for the corporate debtor states that in pursuance of Section 12A of the Code, the matter has been settled and appropriate application has been filed but the same is yet to be listed.

List for further consideration on 27.08.2019.
