Bombay High Court: A secured debt shall take priority over the ‘Government’ dues/tax dues under the SARFAESI Act. III. NCLAT: Rejects application filed under Section 7 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 on grounds of collusion between the corporate debtor and the financial creditor. IV.
I have written approximately 130 Helix Legal articles where I have focused on conveying information to readers concisely, factually and always looking to be positive.
I do not like ‘shock and awe’ articles where the clear intent is to scare people into doing something. There are much better ways to engage with people.
