Serial numbering of company proceedings ensures petitions, interlocutory applications, orders, and documents remain properly linked in the record. Every petition or application under the Company Court Rules, 1959 must bear a distinctive serial number, and an interlocutory application must also carry the serial number of the main proceeding to which it relates. Every order made, process issued, or document filed must bear the serial number of the proceeding to which it relates, ensuring proper identification and linkage in the record.
