The Petitioner says that the Corporate Debtor defaulted on 13.4.2016 in repaying the instalment, this Petition is filed to initiate Insolvency Resolution process against the Corporate Debtor.
(2.) To prove the case of the Petitioner/ the Petitioner has filed Facility agreement dated 5.10.2015, reflecting the limits sanctioned, interest clause and repayment clause and a Demand Promissory Note executed by the Company in favour of the Petitioner for Rs. 1,50,00,000 payable @14.5% interest. Though Promissory Note as well as Loan Agreement discloses interest component @ 14.5%, since the Petitioner and the Corporate Debtor together agreed for charging interest @36% on delayed payments, now the Corporate Debtor could not argue that 36% interest on delayed payments is exorbitant and usurious.
