For IA (IBC)/37/GB/2022, the respondents (Nayak Infrastructure) sought another adjournment through proxy counsel Ms. Rima Deb, citing that their main counsel Mr. Samrat Saha Roy was unable to appear due to personal difficulties. The tribunal noted that the respondents had sought adjournments on several previous dates.

For IA (IBC)/166/GB/2024, filed by Mahindra and Mahindra Financial Services Limited, the liquidator Ms. Sudha Sarma noted that the applicant had not been appearing in the matter for a considerable period and prayed for dismissal due to non-prosecution.

Final Outcome

IA (IBC)/166/GB/2024 filed by Mahindra and Mahindra Financial Services Limited was dismissed for non-prosecution as the applicant had not appeared on several previous dates and appeared no longer interested in pursuing the matter.

The main insolvency petition (CP (IB)/10/GB/2021) filed by State Bank of India against Nayak Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. remains pending and is listed for next hearing on 27th July 2026.
