**Executive Summary**
The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) notified the (Grievance and Complaint Handling Procedure) (Amendment) Regulations, 2026, on June 1, 2026. Effective from the date of publication in the Official Gazette (June 3, 2026), these amendments align service provider definitions with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code and replace the fixed "Form A" filing requirement with a flexible format to be notified by the Board.
**Key Points / Main Content**
**Alignment of Statutory Definitions**
* The definitions for "insolvency professional agency," "insolvency professional," "insolvency professional entity," and "information utility" are amended.
* These terms now carry the same meaning as assigned to them under clause (31A) of section 3 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.
**Revision of Filing Formats**
* The requirement to file grievances and complaints specifically using "Form A" has been removed from the principal regulations.
* Future filings must be submitted in a format as notified by the IBBI.
* "Form A," which was previously located after Chapter V of the principal regulations, is officially omitted.
**Impact Analysis**
**Stakeholder: Complainants and Grievance Filers**
**Impact**
Filers are no longer permitted to use the static "Form A" for submitting complaints or grievances.
**Action Required**
Stakeholders must monitor IBBI notifications to identify the newly prescribed format for filing and ensure all future submissions adhere to the updated Board requirements.
**Stakeholder: Insolvency Professionals, Agencies, Entities, and Information Utilities**
**Impact**
The legal definitions governing these stakeholders within the grievance framework are now explicitly linked to the overarching Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016.
**Action Required**
These entities must ensure their internal compliance and reporting processes reflect the harmonized definitions and the transition to the new filing format notified by the Board.
