NCLT Chennai dismissed Daedong Shipping's Section 9 IBC petition against Srivi Exports for a $150,000 operational debt.
Tribunal found the debt was not crystallized as the contract signatory lacked authority to bind the corporate debtor.
The core issue was the validity of a charterparty agreement allegedly signed by an unauthorized individual.
The order prevents the initiation of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) against Srivi Exports.
