A. Vijayan & Ors. Vs Silver Line Retreat Hotels Private Limited & Ors. (NCLAT Chennai)
The case of A. Vijayan & Ors. Vs Silver Line Retreat Hotels Private Limited & Ors. was heard by the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) in Chennai. The primary issue in this case was an appeal against an order dated May 9, 2024, passed by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Divisional Bench, Chennai.
Background and Impugned Order
The appellants challenged the NCLT order in CP/29/CHE/2024, where the tribunal had directed that multiple pending company petitions, which involved similar issues under Sections 241 and 242 of the Companies Act, be consolidated and placed before the Hon’ble Chairperson for the nomination of an appropriate bench. This was to ensure all related matters could be decided together, thereby avoiding contradictory judgments. The specific company petitions in question were CP Nos. 3/2023 and 22/2023.
The NCLAT noted that the order being challenged did not adjudicate on the merits of any issues or rights of the parties involved. It was simply a procedural directive to consolidate similar cases for efficient adjudication.
