The Company Tribunal held that Respondent No. 1 company is not a quasi-partnership due to lack of equality in shareholding since 1997 and failure to establish grounds for winding up. The alleged family settlement of 1986 was not proved. The rights issue reducing petitioners' shareholding from 15% to 7.5% was not challenged earlier, hence cannot be grounds for oppression now. Non-payment of gratuity to Petitioner No. 1 and non-appointment of Petitioner No. 2 as director cannot constitute oppression. The petition was partly allowed, directing Respondents No. 1 to 5 to buy out petitioners' shares at fair value determined by an independent valuer.
