The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) is hearing two interconnected appeals related to insolvency proceedings of Ferrous Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. Company Appeal (AT) (Insolvency) No. 1782 of 2026 has been filed by Ashish Seth (a suspended director of the corporate debtor) against Ashish Singh (the resolution professional) and others.

The parties have arrived at a consensus to proceed with final hearing of both appeals. The tribunal noted that Respondent No. 3 in both appeals is the suspended director of the corporate debtor, and it has been verified by learned counsel for the appellants that no relief is being claimed against Respondent No. 3.
