Delivering the convocation address, Justice Ashok Bhushan, Chairperson of the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT), said the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code has evolved significantly over the past decade, with major legal and operational issues now settled through landmark judicial pronouncements. He described the period from 2016 to 2021 as the “era of establishment” and the current phase as the “era of refinement,” noting that the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code Amendment Act, 2026, reflects the legislation’s continued evolution. Justice Anupinder Singh Grewal, President of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), in his keynote address, emphasized the need for stronger judicial and institutional coordination to ensure timely insolvency resolutions and advocated the adoption of the UNCITRAL Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency to enhance India’s attractiveness as a global restructuring destination.

Addressing the conference, Ministry of Corporate Affairs Secretary Deepti Gaur Mukerjee described the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code as a transformative reform that has reshaped India’s financial and corporate ecosystem. She highlighted that nearly ₹4 lakh crore has been recovered through resolution processes, with creditors realizing around 170 percent of liquidation value, while more than 32,000 cases were settled before formal admission, preserving credit worth nearly ₹14 lakh crore. Referring to the recently enacted Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code Amendment Act, 2026, she said the reform would further strengthen the insolvency framework and support the national vision of building a developed India under Viksit Bharat.

The NCLAT, in its 172-page order reinstating Cyrus Mistry as executive chairman of Tata Sons, had termed the conversion of Tata Sons into a private company ‘illegal’.

It had said that proper procedures — laid out in Section 14 of the Companies Act, 2013 — were not followed, and the permission of the National Company Law Tribunal had not been taken.Top officials in the corporate affairs ministry — which oversees the RoC — said the requisite documents are being sourced.

Mistry’s legal team is believed to be in touch with RoC officials to ensure the change happens quickly. “We don’t see any reason why the RoC cannot make the change as fast as it did for Tata Sons,” said a member of Mistry’s team.

“The first task for the RoC would be to complete the conversion process and record Tata Sons as a ‘public company’. There is a view to not defy the order as that would amount to contempt,” said an official in the know. He sought anonymity.

“The four-week stay granted by the NCLAT is on Cyrus Mistry assuming the office of executive chairman of Tata Sons. There is no stay on the RoC part of the verdict. So, there is a possibility that Tata Sons may move the Supreme Court against the part of the NCLAT order that termed the change in classification by RoC as illegal. The RoC is closely monitoring the same,” official said.

In September 2017, Tata Sons received shareholder approval to convert itself into a private entity. Mistry, whose family owns 18.4% stake in the Tata Group’s holding company, had opposed the move saying it “would impact fund raising ability of the holding company and restrict the sale of stakes to outsiders”.
