The Indian Institute of Insolvency Professionals of ICAI has published a report suggesting significant reforms to improve the insolvency resolution process. By aligning the Income Tax Act with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), the report recommends tax-neutral treatments and exemptions from debt waiver tax liabilities.
To address Goods and Services Tax (GST) issues, the group proposes enabling seamless input tax credit transfers during insolvency and exempting resolution applicants from legacy GST liabilities. The suggestions aim to simplify compliance and encourage revival of financially stressed companies.
Additionally, a new bill introduced in the Lok Sabha on August 12 aims to amend the IBC with changes to expedite insolvency application admissions and implement out-of-court resolutions. The IBC, enforced since 2016, facilitates a market-driven, time-sensitive resolution for distressed assets.
