Creditors to bankrupt firms could get their hands on a wider pool of valuable assets and claw back money from more shady promoter transactions, once latest changes to India’s insolvency rules take effect.
While the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) remains the primary mode for bankruptcy resolution, lenders often seize assets of defaulting companies under various other laws; however, such assets stay with the individual banks themselves. The amended law will aid in bringing such assets—also seized from the defaulter’s personal or corporate guarantors, essentially, its promoters, corporate parent, or an associate company—within the pool of assets for resolution.

The liquidation of China Evergrande Group, now in its second year, has become a case study in the complexities of corporate insolvency in a globalized, hyper-leveraged economy. With $45 billion in total debt and a corporate structure spanning 3,000 legal entities, the company’s collapse has tested the limits of cross-border legal frameworks, creditor coordination, and regulatory resolve.

The Asset Recovery Conundrum
To date, liquidators have sold just $255 million of Evergrande’s assets, a fraction of the…

Many of the changes to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), proposed in the Bill tabled in the Lok Sabha on Tuesday, were long overdue. To be sure, the corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) has been amended from time to time to plug loopholes—it was amended six times in the first five years. However, the mechanism continued to suffer from infirmities and, as was highlighted by the Supreme Court in its recent order in the Bhushan Steel-JSW Steel case, resolutions have come about at the cost of regulatory compliance.

While carrying high amounts of debt is rarely ideal, this issue isn’t always the result of reckless spending. For many Americans, it’s caused by the fallout of rising living costs, medical emergencies, job loss or simply trying (and failing) to keep up with the payments on high-rate credit cards.

The Cricket Australia chief executive, Todd Greenberg, has warned some nations will go “bankrupt” if they continue to play the longest format of the game, stressing he sees a future with fewer Test nations.
Admitting he has become a “little unpopular” since taking over from Nick Hockley in March, the former Australian Cricketers’ Association boss believes “scarcity in Test cricket is our friend, not our foe”.
“I don’t think everyone in world cricket needs to aspire to play Test cricket, and that might be OK,” Greenberg said on Wednesday with 100 days to go before the Ashes. A lot of traditionalists might not like that.
“I’m not suggesting I know the number that will play, but literally we’re trying to send…
