https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=100034 For offences under the Companies Act, 1956, an Assistant Registrar of Companies acting within statutory duties may be treated as the person aggrieved for limitation purposes under section 469(1)(b) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. The statutory scheme allowing cognizance on a complaint by the Registrar, a shareholder, or a person authorised by the Central Government, together with the inclusion of an Assistant Registrar within the definition of Registrar, supports competence to lodge the complaint. A restrictive construction of "person aggrieved" was rejected in this context, so the limitation objection does not succeed. en-us Thu, 11 Dec 1980 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 10:27:20 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=100034 For offences under the Companies Act, 1956, an Assistant Registrar of Companies acting within statutory duties may be treated as the person aggrieved for limitation purposes under section 469(1)(b) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
