IBBI First Appellate Authority says RTI Cannot Compel Creation of New Data

The appellant sought detailed data on insolvency cases, creditor recoveries, haircuts, liquidation values, avoidance transactions, disciplinary actions and related investigations. The IBBI First Appellate Authority held that information already available on the Board’s website need not be recompiled in the format requested, while information not maintained or held by the Board need not be newly generated or collected from other sources. The appeal was disposed of without interfering with the CPIO’s response.
