Corporate Affairs Secretary Deepti Gaur Mukerjee has urged insolvency professionals and valuers to adopt a robust self-regulating mechanism, stressing that the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), introduced in 2016, carries high expectations for market-linked, time-bound resolutions of stressed assets. Speaking at the ninth annual day of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) in New Delhi, she observed that while a Code of Conduct exists, its impact remains limited and professionals must focus on introspection and self-regulation rather than policing.
