In a major relief to cash-strapped Go First, the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) on Wednesday admitted its plea for voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings and imposed a moratorium on the airline’s financial obligations that bars lessors from taking back aircraft.
A two-member NCLT bench said there is existence of unpaid debt and default committed by Go First above the limits under IBC. With liabilities worth R11,463 crore, the airline has sought voluntary insolvency resolution proceedings as well as an interim moratorium on its financial obligations under Section 10 of IBC, which allows a company to approach NCLT for initiation of insolvency after default.
