Going forward too, the IBBI will be making significant changes to regulations to improve the efficiency, transparency, and effectiveness of the resolution process, the person added.

In a discussion paper issued in February, the IBBI proposed to empower the Committee of Creditors (CoCs) to request the Adjudicating Authority(AA) for a two-stage…
