This order from the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) Disciplinary Committee addresses a Show Cause Notice (SCN) issued to Mr. Manoj Kumar Jain, an Insolvency Professional. The SCN alleged that Mr. Jain accepted an assignment as Interim Resolution Professional (IRP) after 31st December 2019 without holding a valid Authorisation for Assignment (AFA). Mr. Jain argued that his initial consent for the assignment was given before the deadline. The Disciplinary Committee noted that while Mr. Jain's consent for the IRP role was prior to the deadline, he also consented to a Resolution Professional (RP) role after the deadline without an AFA. The IBBI's Disciplinary Committee disposed of the SCN without further direction, acknowledging a prior order from Mr. Jain's own professional body on the matter.
