Stressed Assets

FICCI Sector header

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) is one of the landmark reforms in India. It has aggregated many laws and regulations on bankruptcy in India and has helped in significant improvement in India’s position in the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business Index. More importantly, the enactment of this law has brought about reformative transformation in the credit behaviour of borrowers by underscoring that honouring commitments to pay is the most crucial part of conducting business.


Strengthening of the new insolvency regime is an on-going process, which can be facilitated through consultation and discussions. Against this backdrop, FICCI has constituted a dedicated Committee on Stressed Assets.

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) is one of the landmark reforms in India. It has aggregated many laws and regulations on bankruptcy in India and has helped in significant improvement in India’s position in the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business Index. More importantly, the enactment of this law has brought about reformative transformation in the credit behaviour of borrowers by underscoring that honouring commitments to pay is the most crucial part of conducting business.

The magnitude of usage of IBC clearly shows that it has become the preferred route to resolution for the creditors. The implementation process under the IBC has had a strong and efficient start with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) having swiftly responded to the needs of new ecosystem. All fora ranging from the NCLT to the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India have upheld the objectives of IBC : resolution, maximisation of value of assets for all creditors and promoting entrepreneurship, availability of credit and balancing the interests.
