    <title>Appeal allowed: non-members lack standing under s.244(b); proviso waiver limited to bona fide members, proceedings maintainable under ss.241,242,59</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93156</link>
    <description>NCLAT allowed the appeal and set aside the impugned order. The Tribunal held the respondents were not members of the company and therefore lacked standing to seek a waiver under s.244(b) to invoke remedies under ss.241, 242 and 59 of the Act. s.244 confines the right to apply to specified members; the proviso permitting waiver is available only to bona fide members and cannot be extended to non-members by presumption. The NCLT&#039;s grant of a waiver for alleged &quot;exceptional circumstances&quot; was unsupported by findings establishing such circumstances or a valid membership basis, rendering the waiver unsustainable and the proceedings under s.244 maintainable.</description>
