Vijay Mallya can't cite pending plea to stall insolvency proceedings: SC
The
Supreme Court on Monday said that Vijay
Mallya
cannot use pendency of his plea in the apex court to stall insolvency
proceedings initiated against him in other jurisdictions.
A
bench headed by Chief Justice S A Bobde passed the order after the

Mallya

Directorate (ED) with defaulting on bank loans to the tune of Rs
9,000 crore. He is also facing an extradition trial in the UK. Read
