The HC held that the essential ingredients for maintaining a complaint under Section 138 NI Act were missing against the petitioners. The petitioner designated as director with supporting emails was properly summoned, evidencing involvement in the accused company's affairs. However, another petitioner, Nishrin, lacked specific averments or communications demonstrating her role beyond mere designation. Mere titular status without concrete involvement or correspondence does not suffice to ascribe liability. Consequently, the summons issued against Nishrin was quashed, as she could not be held responsible for the company's affairs. The application to quash the summoning order against Nishrin was allowed.
