Learned counsel for the Respondents has appeared on advance Notice, accepted Notice and has taken serious objections that once arguments on interim stay Application have been addressed before NCLAT and Order has been reserved, present Petition is not maintainable. 5. It is further submitted that Orders of NCLAT are Appealable before Hon’ble Supreme Court; In any case, present Writ is not maintainable. Submissions heard and record perused. 6. Considering that the statutory remedy of Appeal has already been availed by the Petitioner, in terms of Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Amendment) Act, 2026 and Orders have been reserved by NCLAT, it is most inappropriate for the Petitioner to parallelly seek stay of impugned Order dated 03.09.2026, by filing present Writ Petition. The statutory remedy as available, have already been availed. This is a digitally signed order.
