Interrogatories are maintainable in oppression and mismanagement proceedings when they seek material facts directly connected with the pleaded allegations, and discovery and inspection may be ordered under the Companies Act, the Companies (Court) Rules and the Company Law Board Regulations read with the CPC. The court treated interrogatories on transfer of business, sale of assets, alternate land and stoppage of business as relevant and not a fishing, vexatious, oppressive or scandalous enquiry.
