It is also law for turnaround of sick companies through a Resolution Process.

It is one of the rare legislation which concentrates mainly on social, economic, ﬁnancial and legal aspects of the sick companies.

Another important aspect of this law is that it addresses the interests of every stakeholder collectively and does not entertain the individual interests like earlier regime.
The law has proved its potential while bringing a serious behavioural change from diﬀerent stakeholders and improved the ease of doing business ranking at a great extent.
Considering its impact on Indian Insolvency and Bankruptcy System in recent past, the NALSAR University of Law in collaboration with Indian Institute of Corporate Aﬀairs (IICA) under the Ministry of Corporate Aﬀairs (MCA) oﬀering a two years full time residential course (ﬁrst year at NALSAR Hyderabad and second year at IICA, New Delhi) for producing the well trained professionals with the blending of academic, research and practice perspectives on Insolvency Profession.
I have full faith on this collaboration for taking the relationship with IICA for long and contributing the part of NALSAR for development of the Corporate and Individual Insolvency branches of the IBC Code.
