Besco Ltd. Vs. Rubbertex

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Sep-14-2010

The Court : This is an application filed under sections 433 and 434 of the Companies Act, 1956. The case of the petitioner is that for supply of goods sold and delivered a notice was issued on 24th May, 2008. Such notice was addressed at both the registered office of the company as well as at the administrative office and was received thereat. In spite of receipt, no reply has been given to the statutory notice. Therefore, the inability to pay of the company is evident. In fact, part payments have been made after supply of goods to the sum of Rs.1,71,526.68. There is no contemporaneous document to evidence any dispute raised in respect of the goods supplied. Therefore, the goods have not only been received but also utilized by the company without demur. This, therefore, entitles the petitioner to the order sought. Counsel for the company submits that pursuant to orders passed by the Company Law Board on 13th March, 2006, the control and management of the company has come to be vested i...
