Unfortunately, this court has failed to engage the respondents’ attention on such aspect of the matter despite several reminders in course of the hearing. Instead, the respondents have veered off course to emphasise on single-line orders of adjournment to impress that the settlement had never been worked out. But the settlement or the adequacy of the consideration for the transfer of shares is not germane to the issue.

The case of Chatterjee Petrochem (I) (P.) Ltd. v. Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd. [2011] 110 SCL 107 is clearly distinguishable as in that case when the company was in dire need of funds the Chatterjee Group had failed to keep its promise of providing funds as it obtained a loan raising the debt equity ratio of the company. These circumstances were taken into consideration for reduction of Chatterjee group into a minority. In the present case firstly the enforcement of MOU dated 18/05/2007 is not in consideration in the present order and secondly the facts borne out from the record clearly show that raising of authorised share capital was not on account of raising immediate funds for the completion of the hotel/resort project but was mainly for reducing the shareholding of the Petitioner to an abject minority.
In the Companies (Issue of Indian Depository Receipts) Rules, 2004, in rule 10, for sub-rule (i), the following sub-rule shall be substituted, namely
