Case Overview

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Hyderabad Bench heard two Interlocutory Applications (IAs) related to an insolvency petition filed by State Bank of India under Section 95 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. The petition involves State Bank of India as the Petitioner against Respondents Badri Kasturi and M/s. PPS Enviro Power Pvt Ltd. The hearing was conducted in hybrid mode (VC and Physical) before a bench comprising Hon'ble Member (Judicial) Sh. Rajeev Bhardwaj and Hon'ble Member (Technical) Sh. Sanjay Puri.

The matter was recorded as having completed pleadings.

For IA (IBC) 1633/2025, the Tribunal recorded that pleadings were completed with all parties represented.
