ROC Pune held that procedural lapses in a private placement involving one investor formed part of a single integrated transaction and did not justify multiple penalties. No penalty was imposed under Section 42(10) of the Companies Act.

The issue involved alleged violation in handling share application money under company law. The ruling held that maintaining funds in a separate account ensured compliance, leading to penalty removal.
The authority found non-compliance with Section 42(6) due to absence of a separate bank account. It held that such violation attracts penalty under Section 42(10).
