Case of Mehul Harish Gosar vs Athena Constructions Ltd, NCLAT Delhi Judgement Dated 13th October 2025. The appeal arose from an order passed by the NCLT admitting the respondent company into CIRP without granting an opportunity of hearing to the appellant. The appellant contended that before the admission of the insolvency petition, it had already informed the adjudicating authority that the matter was likely to be settled and sought time to file a reply. It was further submitted that the entire dispute with the financial creditor had now been settled. The appellate tribunal observed that the appellant was not heard on merits before the CIRP admission and, therefore, deserved an opportunity to be heard. Accordingly, the impugned order of the NCLT was set aside. The bench return the matter to the NCLT, which will decide on the settlement and handle any claims already lodged in accordance with IBC.
