Tribunal recognised that sums due to workmen from provident, pension and gratuity funds are excluded from the liquidation estate, but held that where the liquidator had already applied all available assets to CIRP costs, liquidation costs and priority payments leaving no remaining assets, the EPFO's application for recovery could not be granted; strict enforcement of the exclusion could not defeat necessary insolvency and liquidation costs.
