Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Mar-23-2011

1. On 16th March, 2011 I had admitted the appeal. I had directed notice of this appeal to be issued to the respondents, as at that point of time the learned Counsel for the petitioner was not praying for any interim order. An affidavit of service has been filed, which says that the respondents were served on 21st March, 2011 at 1100 hrs. None appears for them. 2. This appeal is against an order of the Company Law Board made on 7th January, 2011, refusing to entertain the application of the appellant on the ground that it had no jurisdiction to do so. By the application the appellant herein and petitioner before the Company Law Board had asked for an order for cancellation of the shares acquired by the respondents in the appellant/petitioner Company. The ground was that the attempted take over by them was not a valid one. 3.

1. This appeal has been filed challenging the order dated October 23, 2009 passed by a learned Judge of this Court whereby and where under(SIC) the said learned Judge of this Court dismissed the writ petition since the writ-petitioner invoked the writ jurisdiction without approaching the prescribed appellate authority under the statute. 2. The learned Counsel representing the appellants submits that the learned Single Judge failed to appreciate that the appellant no.1 herein does not come within the purview of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 since the concerned employee of the appellant no.1 cannot come within the definition of the employee in terms of Section 2(e) of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The learned Counsel of the appellants submits that the Award passed by the Controlling Authority under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 on July 10, 2008 cannot be sustained since the employee concerned, viz., respondent no.4 herein does not come within the definition of employee under...
