The Applicant who was a common lender filed an application seeking consolidation of CIRP of AVAL and AFPL stating that both Corporate Debtors were heavily interdependent on one another in terms of operations and therefore, all concerned parties should make an endeavour to arrive at a mutually amicable settlement of the dispute in the larger interest and to enhance the possibility of successful resolution of both Corporate Debtors.
