ABOUT THE BOOK

Pillars of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 is the second volume in an authoritative series on India’s insolvency framework. It follows the first volume, Introduction to Insolvency and Bankruptcy Regime, and precedes the fifth volume, Essar Steel Insolvency Saga, both of which have already been published. Together, the series offers a structured and comprehensive exploration of the evolution, functioning, and jurisprudence of insolvency law in India.

This volume presents a detailed and systematic study of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC), with particular emphasis on its institutional architecture and regulatory mechanisms. It is designed as a definitive reference for academicians, legal practitioners, insolvency professionals, regulators, policymakers, and students of law, commerce, and finance seeking an in-depth understanding of the operational framework of the Code.

The book examines each institutional pillar of the IBC in detail, including the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI), Insolvency Professional Agencies (IPAs), Insolvency Professionals (IPs), Information Utilities (IUs), Adjudicating Authorities, and the Committee of Creditors (CoC). It explains their statutory roles, powers, responsibilities, and interrelationships, highlighting how these pillars collectively ensure the effective functioning of the insolvency resolution process.

Each chapter combines doctrinal clarity with practical insight by analysing relevant statutory provisions, regulations, and the latest judicial pronouncements. Comparative references to global insolvency regimes—such as those of the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Japan—enable readers to situate India’s insolvency framework within a broader international context.

The book also critically engages with implementation challenges, regulatory concerns, and evolving jurisprudence, concluding with a forward-looking discussion on strengthening India’s insolvency ecosystem. Bridging theory and practice, this volume serves both as a practical guide and a rigorous academic resource, making it an essential addition for anyone seeking a holistic understanding of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.
