Vikram Solar has secured a legal victory after the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) set aside the order of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Kolkata Bench, dated June 12, 2026, which had admitted an insolvency application against the company. The NCLAT Principal Bench, New Delhi, passed the order on June 29, 2026, effectively quashing the proceedings initiated under Section 9 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 by operational creditor Isitva Steel Private Limited. The tribunal ruled that the insolvency petition ought not to have been admitted as the claim amount was less than ₹1 crore.
Prior to this final order, the company had deposited ₹91,98,556 via demand draft in favour of the Pay and Accounts Officer, Ministry of Corporate Affairs, New Delhi. The NCLAT directed that this amount be refunded to the appellant after due verification and in accordance with the law. The tribunal noted that the settlement, if any, can be adverted to between the parties directly.
The dispute originated from a settlement agreement where the parties agreed to a total of ₹4,60,49,000, of which ₹4,14,00,000 was already paid. Subsequently, ₹70 lakh was paid, and an email from the operational creditor dated February 4, 2023, acknowledged the remaining liability as ₹91,98,556. With the NCLAT setting aside the admission order, the immediate threat to the company's financial reputation and operational stability is resolved.
