While dismissing the application NCLT held that in the light of provision we shall consider the case in hand and we find, in view of Section 9(5)(ii)(d) of the Code. If the notice of dispute has been received by the Operational Creditor or there is a record of dispute in the information utility in that case the Adjudication Authority has no option but to reject the application. Since, there is existence of dispute which has been raised prior to the issuance of demand notice, therefore, the prayer of applicant is liable to be rejected. Accordingly, we hereby DISMISS the application.
