Merger control notice and disclosure rules: Supreme Court limits penalties, rejects reopening of approved combination, and sets aside adverse findings...
Transfer of pending winding-up proceedings to the NCLT under the fifth proviso to Section 434(1)(c) is discretionary, not automatic. An erstwhile director's locus is limited once the winding-up order is made and the Official Liquidator has taken charge, so no representative right over the company in liquidation can be claimed. A transfer request filed years after the winding-up order was found vitiated by delay, acquiescence, and lack of bona fides. Given the mature stage of liquidation, pending Official Liquidator proceedings, and no demonstrated benefit to creditors or revival, the prayer for transfer was declined and the winding-up petition was directed to continue before the High Court.
