23. FIXED DEPOSITS

During the year under report, the Company has not accepted any fixed deposits under Chapter V of the Companies Act, 2013. As on 1st April, 2014, when new provisions of Companies Act, 2013 regulating the acceptance of deposits by the Company were introduced, the Company had 46,253 outstanding Fixed Deposits aggregating Rs.363.19 crores (excluding interest).

Further, it is mandatory for adjudicating authority to announce moratorium when commencing the Insolvency Resolution process under Section 14 of Insolvency Code prohibiting transferring, encumbering, alienating or disposing off by the Company any of its assets or any legal right or beneficial interest therein; any action to foreclose, recover or enforce any security interest created by the Company in respect of its property including any action under the SARFAESI Act, 2002. Accordingly, the Adjudicating Authority had announced the moratorium in its order dated August 9, 2017 and the same continues till the completion of CIRP

Consequent to prohibitions in place by virtue of moratorium u/s 14 of Insolvency Code as detailed above, preferential payment to a class of creditors is impermissible under the Code. This view was substantiated by Honble Supreme Court in the above mentioned writ petition, while disallowing refund to some of the home-buyers who had opted for refund of amount paid for the purchase of home. Honble NCLT on September 26, 2018 also took similar view in the petition CP No. 10/03/2015 of the company dealing with outstanding Fixed Deposits (whose holders are also Financial Creditor) and the same was disposed of accordingly. Consequent to the above, the Company did not make any payments to any class of creditors during the period under review.

The Honble Supreme Court and in its Order dated March 24, 2021, it has interalia directed:

"225.3. It is made clear that the IRP shall not entertain any expression of interest by any other person nor shall be required to issue any new information memorandum. The said resolution applicants shall be expected to proceed on the basis of the information memorandum already issued by IRP and shall also take into account the facts noticed and findings recorded in this judgment."

Accordingly, accepting any new claims received after December 6, 2019 would lead to updating of information memorandum which is clearly prohibited in terms of the above direction.

The CoC has approved the Final Resolution Plan read with its addendum submitted by Suraksha on June 23, 2021 and all claims received post December 6, 2019 have not been incorporated in the Committee of Creditors ("CoC") and are/ were forwarded to Suraksha.

Further the CoC approved resolution plan of Suraksha states that against the Claims filed subsequent to IM however prior to NCLT Approval Date, an amount of Rs. 9.16 Crore shall be paid to Fixed Depositors, on pro-rata basis as full and final settlement of all the claims of Fixed Deposit holders.
