Byju’s founder files caveat before Supreme Court

New Delhi, August 5

Byju Raveendran has filed a caveat before the Supreme Court against its US-based creditor Glas Trust Company LLC over the order passed by the insolvency appellate tribunal NCLAT.

The caveat was filed before the apex court on August 3, a day after the NCLAT passed an order restoring the board of edtech major after setting aside insolvency proceedings against it. Glas Trust has opposed the Rs 158.9 crore dues settlement with the BCCI alleging the money paid by Riju (brother of Byju Raveendran) was tainted and was a case of “round-tripping”.

Anticipating the US-based creditor would challenge the NCLAT order before the SC, Raveendran had filed a caveat requesting to be heard before the apex court passes any order on a plea filed by the US-based creditors. A Caveat application is filed by a litigant to ensure that no order is passed against them without being heard. — PTI
