Dear Madam \/ Sir,<\/p>\n
In pursuance of clause (d) of sub-regulation (5) of regulation 31 of the IBBI (Liquidation Process) Regulations, 2016 (\u2018Liquidation Process Regulations\u2019) requiring the liquidator to file list of stakeholders on the electronic platform of the Board for dissemination on its website, the Board had issued the Circular No. IBBI\/LIQ\/40\/2021 dated 04th March 2021 directing the liquidators to file the list of stakeholders and modification thereof, in the stipulated format, on the electronic platform, www.ibbi.gov.in.<\/p>\n
2. In the said format, the particular \/ column \u201cIdentification No.\u201d for seeking identification details of stakeholders is mentioned. It has come to notice that in few instances, the details such as Aadhaar, PAN card, etc., are being filled therein. Such information being sensitive personal information is prone to misuse and not to be revealed on public platforms. The \u2018General Guidelines for securing Identity information and Sensitive personal data or information in compliance to Aadhaar Act, 2016 and Information Technology Act, 2000\u2019 issued by Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology provides that any personal identifiable data including Aadhaar should not be published in public domain.<\/p>\n
3. To address this problem, this Circular in partial modification of the Circular under reference, removes the column \u201cIdentification No.\u201d from the particulars of the format stipulated therein. The insolvency professionals are directed to file the list of stakeholders of the respective corporate debtor under liquidation and modification thereof, in the revised format placed in Annexure, within three days of the preparation of the list or modification thereof, as the case may be. The rest of the contents of the above said Circular shall remain same.<\/p>\n
4. This Circular is issued in exercise of the powers under clause (aa) of sub-section (1) of section 196 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.<\/p>\n
Yours sincerely,
\nSd\/-
