The IBC’s ‘fresh start’ process provides a systematic manner of waiving debts overseen by a judicial body.

Historically, farm loan waivers have been used as a quick-fix solution to agrarian distress in India. Commonly used by political parties before elections, they have a long history at both central & state levels.
