Steps For Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process

Perturbed & Distressed By Bad Debt?

It is a known fact that bad debts are an adverse factor and if not recovered, it becomes detrimental to the financial health of the Creditor, be it an individual or a corporate.

In pursuing the recovery of your debt, many a time, the debtor evades or dodges, making it obvious that he is not interested or capable of repaying the debt.

Effective Way & Means To Recover Debt

As a creditor, you should be aware of your rights in order to recover bad debt from a corporate debtor in various ways. Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016, is a very effective instrument if the amount owed to you is one lakh or more. The Code is an amalgam of different earlier codes & provides a single window clearance system.
