Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code prevails over apex court rules in case of conflict: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court has held that where the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) conflict with the Supreme Court Rules (SCR), the IBC must prevail, underlining that procedural rules cannot be used to dilute the strict timelines prescribed by Parliament for insolvency proceedings. The judgment came in an appeal filed by a liquidator challenging an order of the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT). (PTI/File) A bench of justices Dipankar Datta and Satish Chandra Sharma ruled that litigants cannot circumvent the rigid limitation regime under the IBC by filing defective appeals merely to save limitation and then curing defects at their convenience.

The IBC must prevail being the statutory edict,” held the bench in …

There’s a particular thrill in watching a star walk into terrain that seems bigger than them. Not just physically—though mountains tend to do that—but cinematically, where the scale of the setting promises a story that could swallow clichés whole and spit out something raw, unpredictable. Survival thrillers, at their best, do exactly that. They strip characters of artifice and leave them with instinct. At their worst, they become endurance tests of a different kind—of patience. Charlize Theron has, over the years, built a reputation for thriving in precisely these spaces. She belongs to that rare league of actresses – Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, Uma Thurman, Karen Gillan, Zoe Saldaña – who have not only embraced action but reshaped its texture. And yet, even within that group, Theron’s filmography feels unusually varied. From the relentless chaos of Mad Max: Fury Road to the bone-crunching intimacy of Atomic Blonde, from the mythic immortality of The Old Guard to the high-octane spectacle of the Fast & Furious franchise, she has fought warlords, spies, systems, and gravity itself. In …
