Best of BS Opinion: Myanmar tensions, Dubai's Malathon, and Sindoor lessons
The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Amendment Bill aims to reinforce core principles while streamlining processes. By undoing the Vidarbha Industries and Rainbow Papers rulings, it restores the original insolvency trigger and prioritises secured creditors over government dues. It strengthens the 'clean slate' principle, binds all stakeholders to approved resolution plans, and safeguards existing licences. Tighter timelines for adjudicating authorities, incorporation of regulatory provisions into the Code, and new rules for creditor committees are notable steps. Yet, as M S Sahoo points out, persistent inequities — such as the gap between recoveries for financial and operational creditors — remain unaddressed, and cross-border provisions risk concentrating power with the executive. Shifting to the Northeast, political developments in Myanmar and Manipur carry significant regional implications. Myanmar's plan to hold elections in December 2025 comes even as civil war leaves border states vulnerable to Chinese influence. These tensions spill over into Mizoram, Nagaland, and Manipur, where infiltration from Myanmar is tied to ethnic strife between Meitei and Kuki-Zo groups. Measures like scrapping the Free Movement Regime and initiating border fencing may take years to complete. Resistance groups with cross-border ties remain active. As Aditi Phadnis notes, while President's rule in Manipur has reduced violence, incidents like the June 2025 protests show underlying divisions remain ahead of pivotal elections in Myanmar, India, and Bangladesh. In Dubai, coping with August heat that touches 50 degree Celsius has taken a novel turn. The 'Mallathon,' organised by the Dubai Sports Council, opens shopping malls early for walkers and joggers, creating climate-controlled fitness spaces. About 500 people participate daily, including corporate teams, with attractions like robotic humanoid races adding flair. Inspired by similar practices in colder regions abroad, the initiative, says Sandeep Goyal, has been embraced as an inclusive and practical response to extreme weather, even if some critics dismiss it as image-building. Meanwhile, Operation Sindoor has reignited debate on air force doctrines. The Pakistan Air Force traditionally focuses on fleet preservation and air-to-air combat tallies, while the Indian Air Force prioritises strategic objectives, even at higher aircraft loss rates. As Shekhar Gupta observes, the IAF's strikes on preselected targets contrasted sharply with the PAF's defensive posture, reflecting a longstanding divergence in approach. Finally, Kumar Abishek delves into the science of randomness, distinguishing it from unpredictability and highlighting its role in cryptography, simulations, and secure communications. Advances in quantum computing now allow certified randomness generation, a reminder of both technology's reach and nature's limits. Stay tuned!

Banks recover Rs 3.96 lakh cr against admitted claims of Rs 12.15 lakh cr through insolvency resolution
Banks and financial creditors have taken a 67% haircut in over 1,200 cases of corporate insolvency cases that ended in resolution. The data released by Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) indicates a realisation of Rs. 3.96 lakh crore for creditors under resolution plans through June 2025 against admitted claims of Rs 12.15 lakh crore. The fair value of these assets was estimated at Rs. 3.50 lakh crore, and the liquidation value at Rs. 2.32 lakh crore. This demonstrates that creditors realized 170.84% of the liquidation value, a key indicator of the process's effectiveness in preserving and enhancing the value of distressed assets. According to IBBI, about 40% of the CIRPs (497 out of 1229 for which data are available), which yielded resolution plans, were earlier with BIFR and/or defunct. In these CDs, the claimants have realised 18.91% of their admitted claims and 152.42% of liquidation value. In the April-June 2025 quarter, 60 insolvency cases were resolved with around Rs 21,000 crore claims. Against these claims, financial institutions recovered Rs 6,200 crore, or 29% of the admitted claims. The report also sheds light on the resolution of large cases and the reasons for liquidations. As of June 2025, several large cases, defined as those with admitted claims exceeding Rs. 1000 crore, were resolved. For corporate debtors (CDs) with claims exceeding ₹1,000 crore, 177 resolved cases resulted in 33.70% recovery of admitted claims (₹10.46 lakh crore), which is 178.17% of liquidation value (₹1.98 lakh crore). While 2,824 corporate debtors entered liquidation, the completed processes realised only 90.3% of liquidation value. Till June, 2025, 1439 CDs have been completely liquidated. These 1439 CDs together had outstanding claims of Rs.4.26 lakh crore, but the assets valued at Rs. 0.17 lakh crore Most liquidated CDs (78%) were defunct or BIFR cases with severely eroded asset value (averaging 6.13% of debt). However, 103 CDs were rescued during liquidation via going-concern sales, recovering ₹4,679 crore. The IBBI report clarifies that around 78% of the CIRPs ending in liquidation were for companies that were either already with the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) or were defunct before the CIRP began. The economic value in most of these corporate debtors had already been significantly eroded, with assets valued at an average of just 6.13% of the outstanding debt. Till June 2025, 103 CDs were closed by sale as a going concern under liquidation process. These 103 CDs had claims amounting to Rs 1.6 lakh crore, as against the liquidation value of Rs. 5674 crore. The liquidators in these cases realized Rs 4679 crore and companies were rescued.

IBC amendments to allow partial asset sales, second shot at revival
New Delhi: Apart from speeding up the disposal of distressed companies as going concerns, the proposed amendments to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) tabled in Lok Sabha on Tuesday also makes it easier for splitting up such firms so that lenders could consider sale of individual assets when they are unable to find takers for the whole business, two persons informed about the government's deliberations on insolvency reforms said. The proposed amendments will also prevent orders for liquidation of a distressed company just because the 330-day window available for debt resolution under IBC has expired. This is meant to avoid situations like the Bhushan Power & Steel Ltd., the resolution plan for which was annulled by the Supreme Court in its now-recalled 2 May order. The apex court had then said that approving the corporate turnaround plan after the 330-day window was 'a grave error of law', setting aside JSW Steel's ₹ 19,700 crore resolution plan for Bhushan Power and ordering its liquidation. The proposed amendments specifically allow insolvency tribunals to grant a 120-day fresh opportunity to consider a new resolution plan before finally sending the company to liquidation, explained one of the two persons cited earlier, both of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity. 'The second attempt will benefit from the wealth of experience from the first effort,' said this person. Queries emailed on Thursday to the ministry of corporate affairs and the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) seeking comments for the story remained unanswered till press time. To be sure, stakeholders can request tribunals to grant extra time even under the current system, but formally writing into the Code that there is a second official chance available for reviving a distressed company will boslter the view that IBC's main goal is to rescue a struggling business, instead of just shutting it down, experts said. A second chance at insolvency resolution within a maximum period of 120 days even when grounds of liquidation are met after the 330-day period is sought to be allowed by inserting a new sub-section 1A in Section 33 of IBC, which deals with liquidation proceedings. For such second chance, 66% of creditors have to consent. 'In certain circumstances, the amendment empowers the adjudicating authority to allow the recommencement of the corporate insolvency resolution (CIR) proceedings despite prior expiry of the CIR process period,' explained Anoop Rawat, national practice head (insolvency and restructuring) at law firm Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co. Experts are also of the view that the flexibility to dispose of individual assets will be useful in the resolution of businesses with operations in multiple sectors. 'Explicitly incorporating in the Code that a resolution plan can include sale of one or more assets of the corporate debtor recognises the need for this flexibility and to avoid legal challenges. In May this year, IBBI had introduced this provision through regulations. But specifying this in the Code itself gives greater comfort to stakeholders in opting for this,' said Rawat.
