How India's insolvency pipeline works

Every company under CIRP moves through the same statutory stages — and each stage means something different to an investor. This page is the map: what each stage is, what you can do there, and a live door into every one of them.

CIRP is time-bound by law: 180 days, extendable to 270, hard-capped at 330 including litigation — which is why this pipeline moves every single week.
1
Newly Admitted
115 live
The NCLT admits the case, a moratorium freezes all recovery action, and an Interim Resolution Professional takes control of the company. Creditors file claims; the true debt picture is still being collated.
For investors: the earliest signal in the system. Nothing is for sale yet — this is where you spot targets, start diligence, and watch which lenders are in, weeks before the formal window opens.

Inviting Expressions of Interest
27 open now
The Resolution Professional publishes Form G — the public invitation for resolution applicants. Eligibility criteria and submission deadlines are set. This is the formal doorway into a distressed acquisition.
For investors: the acquisition window. If you want to bid for the company, this is where you enter — every open deal here shows its EoI deadline so you know exactly how long the door stays open.

Under Evaluation
1,008 awaiting outcome
The EoI window has closed. Resolution plans are before the Committee of Creditors for negotiation and voting; the winning plan then goes to the NCLT for approval. The quietest stage — and the one nobody else tracks.
For investors: watch for the verdict. Outcomes here reset asset prices — and if no plan survives, the case tips to liquidation, where assets come to market piece by piece.

The verdict — every case exits one of three ways
Resolved
1,508
A resolution plan is approved: the company survives under new ownership, creditors take their negotiated recovery. The full record — recoveries, haircuts, who bought what — lives in the archive.
The resolved record →
Liquidation
3,184
2,155 in process · 1,029 dissolved
No viable plan — the company is wound up and assets are sold. In-process liquidations are a live asset market: plants, land and machinery under auction until the company is finally dissolved.
Liquidation cases →
Withdrawn
1,302
The promoter settles with creditors under Section 12A and the case is withdrawn before conclusion — often the fastest resolution of all, and a signal of promoters who fight to keep their company.
Withdrawn cases →

The parallel track: voluntary liquidation

2,585 solvent companies have chosen to wind up under Section 59 — an orderly exit, not distress. Tracked separately so the distress pipeline stays clean.
