The Court : This application has been made by the company further to liberty to apply provided in the order dated 12th April, 2010. By that order, admission and advertisement of this winding up application was stayed on some terms. This application is for variation of those terms. Such variation is prayed for by the company stating that they have been unable to comply with the terms of the said order strictly. However, I am satisfied that the company is willing to discharge its obligations under the said order, if some accommodation is provided by the Court. Admittedly further to the said order a sum of Rs.9,30,000/- has been paid by the company as of date. Therefore, the balance due today according to the said order is to be worked out by the company.

Court: Kolkata

The Court : Instead of taking up the stay petition first, by consent of the parties, we hear out the whole appeal since all the papers which have been used before the Hon'ble First Court have been placed before us along with the stay petition. We have heard the learned Advocates for the parties at length. This appeal is directed against an order passed by the Company Court on 14.5.2010. The facts of the case are that the claim in the petition for winding up is for goods sold and delivered by the petitioning creditor to the company. It further appears from the fact that the goods were supplied to the company in accordance with the specification and purchase order was placed for 40000 Pcs. of the inserts at Rs.55.00 per piece.

Adhunik Ispat Ltd. Vs. Astha Infrastructure Ltd.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Aug-10-2010

THE COURT: There will be an order in terms of prayer (a) of the application. The present appeal has been preferred from an order dated 1st March, 2010 passed by the Hon'ble First Court when the Hon'ble First Court was pleased to pass an order, inter alia, to the following effect: Report filed by the Special Officer be kept on record. From a reading of the said report, it appears that except for the security personnel, no activity was found at the said premises. In fact, the said Special Officer was not allowed to enter the said premises. Accordingly, directions are given for filing affidavits. In such circumstances, the Hon'ble First Court gave direction to file affidavits and the matter was directed to appear in the list for final disposal. Being aggrieved by the said order, this appeal has been filed on the ground that the Hon'ble First Court should have directed the Special Officer to revisit the premises in question and to carry out the order dated 17th February, 2010.

Hscl-sipl (Jv) Vs. National Highways Authority of India

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Aug-10-2010

The Court : The averments made in the Section 9 application do not show that this Court has jurisdiction. However, it is very extraordinary that such point was not taken at the earliest stage. As a consequence interim orders have been passed whereby the respondent has been directed to keep the bank guarantee amount in a separate account. Although I have no option but to dismiss the application, but since affidavits have been filed in this matter and the rights of the parties have been altered because of the pendency of this application before this Court, the parties are directed to maintain status quo amongst themselves with regard to the contract for a period of four weeks from date to enable the petitioner to approach the appropriate forum. On expiry of such period of four weeks or upon the petitioner approaching the forum, whichever is earlier, this order will stand vacated. All parties concerned are to act on a signed photocopy of this order on the usual undertakings....

Re: Raman Dhiman Vs. Official Liquidator, High Court, Calcutta and ors ...

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Aug-10-2010

The Court : This application concerns the Punjab property only. There is a dispute amongst the ex-directors of the company. One of them is the applicant before me. The dispute is, to whom is the Official Liquidator to deliver possession of that property. I find from the judgement and order dated 15th March, 2010 in CA No.51 of 2010, CA No.52 of 2010, CA No.683 of 2008, CP No.2 of 196 that on the payment of Rs.62,00,000/- by 31st March, 2010 the attachment of inter alia the Punjab property would stand vacated. It is common ground that Rs.62,00,000/- has been paid. The applicant before me makes two contentions : (i) Possession should be handed over to his client as he is the rightful owner (ii) he has paid the security charges which are substantial. These security charges should be reimbursed to him. I will take the second point first. As far as the security charges are concerned, they were included in the sum of Rs.62,00,000/- in the order dated 15th March, 2010. As that judgment and or...
