When the Adjudicating Authority passed an order for liquidation of the corporate debtor under section 33, the Resolution Professional appointed under Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process shall act as the liquidator for the purposes of liquidation unless replaced by the Adjudicating Authority.

The Adjudicating Authority shall by order replace the Resolution Professional, if—

The Adjudicating Authority may direct the Board to propose the name of Insolvency Professional to be appointed as a liquidator.

The Adjudicating Authority on the proposal of the board shall by an order appoint Insolvency Professional as a liquidator.

On the appointment of a liquidator, all powers of the board of directors, key managerial personnel and the partners of the corporate debtor, shall cease to have effect and shall be vested in the liquidator.

A company intending to voluntary liquidate itself shall meet the following conditions:—
