Authority: National Company Law Tribunal, Division Bench (Court–I), Chennai
Order Date: July 7, 2026
Case Overview
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Chennai heard an interlocutory application (Com.Appl(CA)/2/CHE/2026) within the main insolvency petition CP(CA)/129/CHE/2025 filed by Refex Renewables & Infra Ltd against Silres Energy Solutions Pvt Ltd. The application concerned Refex Renewables' request to inspect documents held by Silres Energy Solutions. Respondent 1 (Silres Energy) filed a reply stating they had not refused inspection but requested advance notice and a specific document list due to the sensitive nature of the documents. They also requested that inspection be carried out by the applicant personally rather than representatives to maintain confidentiality.
Final Outcome
The NCLT bench, comprising Member (Judicial) Sanjiv Jain and Member (Technical) Venkataraman Subramaniam, permitted the applicant (Refex Renewables) to inspect the documents with the help of an authorized representative, subject to two conditions: (1) both the applicant and representative must provide confidentiality affidavits, and (2) the applicant must provide Silres Energy with a specific list of documents to be inspected and a minimum seven-day advance notice of the inspection. The tribunal directed both parties to maintain decorum during the process and listed the application for further hearing on July 21, 2026.
