Why This Course Matters

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) isn’t just a law; it’s a paradigm shift. It moved India from "debtor-in-possession" to "creditor-in-control," making time the most valuable asset in the room.

If you understand the sections but struggle with the "why" behind NCLT decisions or the limits of a resolution plan, this course is for you. We bridge the gap between statutory theory and courtroom reality.

Why Join This Course?

At an intermediate level, you don’t just need to know the rules—you need to know how to navigate them. This course focuses on the essence of the Code: where legal authority ends and commercial discretion begins.

Go Beyond the Basics: Move past simple definitions into the strategic "Commercial Wisdom" of the CoC.

Case-Driven Insights: Analyze why the Supreme Court protects certain resolutions while striking down others.

Career Ready: Gain the vocabulary and tactical thinking used by top insolvency professionals and litigators.

What You Will Master

By the end of this journey, you will be able to:

Decode the Philosophy: Understand why the IBC treats "default" as a fact, not a debate. 

Navigate the Lifecycle: Master the path from the first filing (CIRP) to the finality of a resolution plan or liquidation. 

Identify the "No-Go" Zones: Learn exactly where judicial review stops and the Committee of Creditors (CoC) takes over. 

Drive Predictability: Apply the principles of finality and restraint to ensure a resolution plan actually stands the test of law. 

Through judicial analysis and applied exercises, participants learn to identify where legal scrutiny ends and commercial discretion begins.
