India Stressed Asset Opportunities
 
 
 

Expert Speak


"Three things are clear now. First, the Supreme Court cleared the haze around moratorium on loans. Second, the suspension on initiation of corporate insolvency proceedings in respect of COVID-19 defaults expired on 24th March 2021. Third, the COVID-19 has become 'new normal' for business. Thus, normalcy is restored as regards resolution of stress under the Code"
Mr. M.S. Sahoo
Chairman, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India

 
 
 
 
 

Sector Insights


The corporate insolvency resolution process was suspended in March 2020 to protect firms from being dragged into the insolvency process for potential defaults due to COVID-19 related shutdowns.


After a year of relevant provisions being suspended, fresh proceedings under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) can now be initiated. Certain provisions under the Code, which provide for time-bound and market-linked resolution of stressed assets, are now available again starting March 24, 2021.


Further, as organisations now adapt to the ‘new normal’, it has become important to ensure lucrative deals within the stressed assets sector. Due to continuous reforms and proactive initiatives taken by the government, India is now amongst the best performing countries in South Asia in handling insolvency cases and achieving high recovery rates- thus making it an attractive market for global investors.
