Therefore, the requirement for convening and holding separate meetings to ascertain their consent was dispensed with. The Tribunal directed the Applicant Company to serve notices as per the statutory requirements to relevant authorities, including the Central Government, Regional Director, Registrar of Companies, Official Liquidator, Income Tax Department, and other sectoral regulators or authorities likely to be affected by the proposed scheme.The judgment further instructed the Applicant Companies to file an affidavit of service to the Tribunal confirming compliance with the directions regarding the issuance of notices.
