Secured creditors too can file winding up petition despite sufficiency of security

February 13, 2013 3900 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the appellant was a secured creditor. It had the claim for Rs. 500 and above. The creditor also pleaded, the company was insolvent and unable to pay its debts. The appellant also claimed, it was just and equitable that the company should be wound up. The above pleas could only be resisted by the company once they would raise the bona fide dispute meaning thereby, if the creditor has an admitted claim it must be paid, in default that could only be resisted by raising a bona fide dispute. In the instant case, creditor could prove that it had a claim. From the pleading, it would hardly appear that the company could dispute, far to speak of bona fide, that could resist a winding up petition. The Judge did not advert to the said issue.

To file petition U/s. 397/398 petitioner must be shareholder on the date of petition

February 10, 2013 7519 Views 0 comment Print

The issues regarding genuineness of the sale deed, undervaluation, etc. are beyond the purview of instant CP, since a consideration of oppression and mismanagement arises only if the petitioners are found to be shareholders of the company. That issue being held against them the other issues pleaded in the CP do not arise. The petitioners have approached the Bench with unclean hands and they are not entitled to any equitable reliefs. The attempt of the petitioners to re-agitate the concluded issues is nothing but an abuse of the process of the Court. The company petition is devoid of any merits.
