The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) has notified the IBBI (Insolvency Resolution Process for Corporate Persons) (Amendment) Regulations, 2026, introducing key changes relating to valuation methodology and treatment of certain stakeholders in insolvency proceedings.

- Align valuation practices with evolving regulatory and market expectations
The updated framework provides clearer guidance on how valuers and resolution professionals are to determine fair value and liquidation value during insolvency proceedings.
3. Treatment of Certain Real Estate Allottees
The amendment introduces provisions relating to the treatment of allottees in real estate projects who have not filed claims during the insolvency resolution process.
These provisions aim to clarify the handling of such cases within the CIRP framework and ensure that the interests of stakeholders are addressed in a structured and transparent manner.
4. Objective of the Amendments
The amendments seek to enhance procedural clarity, strengthen valuation standards, and address practical challenges encountered during insolvency resolution, particularly in real estate insolvency cases.
Overall, the revised regulations are intended to improve the efficiency, transparency, and effectiveness of the corporate insolvency resolution process.
