Sri Virendra Nath Vs. the State of West Bengal and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Oct-01-2010

The Court :- Counsel has submitted that the petitioner in this art.226 petition needs orders for two purposes: for directing the police to make proper investigation on the basis of the FIR already registered; and for directing the police to give the petitioner necessary protection so that he may enter his shop on the strength of the interim order made by the Company Law Board. As to investigation, I am of the view that if the petitioner has any reason to say that the investigating officer has not been investigating the matter properly, then he should bring the matter to the notice of the Magistrate concerned. There is no reason for the High Court to exercise power under art.226 for monitoring the investigation, if it is still in progress. In so far as the question of police protection is concerned, it is not the case that in spite of order of the Company Law Board directing the police to give the petitioner necessary protection so that he may enter the shop in question, the police have...

Decided on: Oct-01-2010

The Court : This Court ( The Honble Justice Patherya ) passed an order dated September 9, 2008 appointing a Receiver to make an inventory of the assets in possession of the alleged contemnors. The order was communicated to the alleged contemnors on September 23, 2008. It appears that the learned Receiver was not allowed to make an inventory in terms of the order dated September 9, 2008 of Her Ladyship. On September 23, 2008 this Bench directed the learned Receiver to take actual physical possession of the assets in question, if necessary with police help. The learned Receiver submitted a report wherefrom it appears that the alleged contemnors obstructed implementation of the order dated September 23, 2008 of this Court. On December 3, 2008, this Court confirmed the earlier interim order and directed the respondents to make over possession of the assets in question to the learned Receiver at a time and place to be notified by the learned Receiver.

Kesar Kanwar Bengani Vs. Itc Ltd.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Oct-01-2010

The Court :- The plaintiff claims to have lost the certificates relating to the shares held by the plaintiff in the defendant company. Following the plaintiffs complaint, the defendant wrote back on June 1, 2010 saying that since a large number of shares was involved, it was the defendants policy to advise any shareholder complaining of loss of share certificates to obtain an order from Court for issuance of duplicate certificates. It is not necessary to go in to the propriety of such a requirement by a listed company of the defendants magnitude. The present application is for judgment on admission. The underlying principle of Order XII Rule 6 of the Code may not allow any order to be made on the present application. There are several reasons. The company cannot be interested in its own shares and the company is not the owner of the shares. However, it does not appear from the letter issued on June 1, 2010 by the defendant to the plaintiff that there are any other claimants for the sam...
