https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=112615 A winding-up petition under section 439 of the Companies Act, 1956 based on a foreign decree is not a proceeding for execution of a decree within section 44A of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. The CPC scheme distinguishes between recognition of a foreign judgment and direct execution, and section 44A applies only to decrees of superior courts in reciprocating territories. Winding-up is a separate statutory remedy involving judicial discretion and wider considerations beyond debt recovery; the foreign decree may evidence indebtedness, but it does not convert the petition into an execution proceeding. The objection based on non-compliance with section 44A was rejected. en-us Wed, 29 Jul 2009 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 15:19:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=112615 A winding-up petition under section 439 of the Companies Act, 1956 based on a foreign decree is not a proceeding for execution of a decree within section 44A of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908.
