The Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs (IICA), under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India, in partnership with the Association of Insolvency Professional Entities (AIPE), recently hosted the National Conference on “Redefining India’s Restructuring Ecosystem: A Decade of Learning – Directions for the Future” at the Pradhan Mantri Sangrahalaya Auditorium, Teen Murti Marg, New Delhi.
The event also featured the convocation ceremony of the 6th Batch of the Post Graduate Insolvency Programme (PGIP), IICA’s flagship academic initiative aimed at developing a highly skilled cadre of insolvency professionals, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs said on Monday.
Justice Ashok Bhushan, Chairperson of the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal, the chief guest at the event, delivered the convocation address and reflected on the remarkable journey of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) over the past decade.
He observed that the IBC is no longer in its formative years, with its foundational questions having been authoritatively settled through a decade of landmark jurisprudence.
Describing the period from 2016 to 2021 as the “era of establishment” and the current phase as the “era of refinement,” Justice Bhushan noted that the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Amendment) Act, 2026, reflects the maturity of a legislation that continues to evolve through practical experience and judicial guidance.
A major highlight of the event was the convocation ceremony of the 6th Batch of the Post Graduate Insolvency Programme (PGIP), IICA’s flagship programme for training insolvency professionals.
A total of 40 students were awarded degrees and certificates by the dignitaries present on the dais, marking the successful completion of the programme by a new cohort of professionals equipped to contribute to India’s evolving insolvency and restructuring ecosystem.
