https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=102995 Section 630 of the Companies Act, 1956 is described as a benevolent provision aimed at securing the speedy return of company property wrongfully retained by an officer, employee, former officer, former employee, or a person claiming under them. The text notes that its reach is not limited to current service and may apply to continued retention after cessation of employment. It also states that civil rights, a memorandum of understanding, or arbitration do not, by themselves, exclude criminal liability where wrongful withholding of company assets is alleged. Disputed questions about title, authority to retain, and the genuineness of the asserted arrangement are said to require trial rather than quashing review. en-us Fri, 01 Sep 1995 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 11:07:39 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=102995 Section 630 of the Companies Act, 1956 is described as a benevolent provision aimed at securing the speedy return of company property wrongfully retained by an officer, employee, former officer, former employee, or a person claiming under them.
