Interim Resolution Professional (IRP)

An Interim Resolution Professional (IRP) plays a critical role in the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. The IRP is appointed to take control of the corporate debtor's management, protect assets, verify claims, and manage the insolvency process during the initial stage.

The role requires strong knowledge of insolvency law, financial analysis, stakeholder coordination, statutory timelines, creditor communication, and regulatory compliance. Proper management by the IRP helps maintain business continuity and protects the interests of creditors and stakeholders.

We provide professional support for Interim Resolution Professional assignments, assisting with claim verification, public announcements, creditor coordination, compliance filings, asset protection, and smooth conduct of the insolvency resolution process.
