Both the Petitioner Companies  belong to the same group of<br \/>\nmanagement. The Transferor company is a wholly owned subsidiary of<br \/>\nthe Transferee Company.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.\t\tIt<br \/>\nhas been pointed out that vide the orders dated 18th<br \/>\nAugust 2010 passed in the Company Application no. 241 of 2010, the<br \/>\nmeetings of the Equity Shareholders and the only Secured Creditor of<br \/>\nthe Transferor company were dispensed with in view of the written<br \/>\nconsent letters placed on record. The meeting of the unsecured<br \/>\ncreditors was also dispensed with in view of the strong financial<br \/>\nposition of the Transferee Company indicated by the substantial<br \/>\nexcess of assets over the liabilities of the Transferee Company,<br \/>\nprior as well as Post amalgamation. Whereas vide the order dated 18th<br \/>\nAugust 2010 passed in Co. Application No. 242 of 2010, the meeting of<br \/>\nthe Equity Shareholders of the Transferee Company were directed to be<br \/>\nconvened. Pursuant to the directions, issued in this regard, after<br \/>\nthe due notices to the concerned parties as well as the public<br \/>\nnotice,  the said meeting was duly convened on 25th<br \/>\nSeptember 2010 and the proposed scheme was duly approved unanimously<br \/>\nby the Equity Shareholders, present and voting at the said meeting.<br \/>\nThe result of the said meeting was duly reported to this court vide<br \/>\nthe report dated 8th October 2010.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\t\tMy<br \/>\nattention is drawn to clause 12.1 to 12.3 of the scheme, whereby the<br \/>\nreduction of capital in form of utilization of Securities Premium<br \/>\nAccount of the Transferee Company has been proposed as an integral<br \/>\npart of the scheme. It has also been pointed out that vide order<br \/>\ndated 18th August 2010, separate procedure as envisaged<br \/>\nunder sec. 101(2) of the Companies Act, 1956 and further procedure<br \/>\nprescribed under rules 48 to 65 of the Company Court Rules were also<br \/>\ndispensed with.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\t\tThe<br \/>\nsubstantive petitions were admitted vide order dated 29th<br \/>\nOctober 2010. The public notices for the same were duly advertised in<br \/>\nthe newspapers &#8216;Indian Express&#8217; English daily, and<br \/>\n&#8216;Sandesh&#8217; Gujarati Daily, both Ahmedabad editions dt.<br \/>\n11th November 2010 and the publication in the Government<br \/>\ngazette was dispensed with.  Affidavits dt. 11th November<br \/>\n2010 confirm the same. No one has come forward with any objections to<br \/>\nthe said petitions even after the publication. The same has been<br \/>\nfurther confirmed by the additional affidavit dated 21st<br \/>\nMarch 2011 annexed to the petitions.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\t\tNotice<br \/>\nof the petition of the Transferor Company  was served upon the<br \/>\nOfficial Liquidator attached to Gujarat High Court. Vide the report<br \/>\ndated 28th January 2011, filed by the Official Liquidator,<br \/>\nit is observed that the affairs of the Transferor company has not<br \/>\nbeen conducted in a manner prejudicial to the interest of their<br \/>\nmembers or  to the public interest. However, the Official Liquidator<br \/>\nhas requested this court to direct the Transferor Company to maintain<br \/>\nits books of accounts and records for a period of 8 years from the<br \/>\ndate of sanctioning the scheme and not to dispose off the same<br \/>\nwithout prior permission of the Central Govt. The Transferor company<br \/>\nis accordingly directed to keep its books and records for a period of<br \/>\n8 years from the date of sanctioning the scheme and not to dispose<br \/>\noff the same without prior permission of the Central Govt.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.\t\tNotice<br \/>\nof the petitions have been served upon the Central Govt. and Shri<br \/>\nIqbal A. Shaikh, Standhing Counsel appearing for the Central Govt. An<br \/>\naffidavit dt. 28th February 2011 has been filed by Mr.<br \/>\nUttam Chand Nahta, the Regional Director, North-Western Region,<br \/>\nMinistry of Corporate Affairs, whereby  two observations are made.\n<\/p>\n<p>(i) pertain to the proposed reduction of capital in form of<br \/>\nutilization of securities premium account of the Transferee Company<br \/>\nin order to adjust the amount of Goodwill arising out of previous<br \/>\nscheme of amalgamation, which is not yet reflected in the books of<br \/>\naccounts of the Transferee Company and the (ii) pertain to compliance<br \/>\nof the Accounting Standard-14 by the Transferee Company.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.\t\tThe<br \/>\nattention of this court is drawn to the Additional Affidavit dated<br \/>\n21st March 2011, whereby the said issue has been dealt<br \/>\nwith and it has been submitted that the above referred previous<br \/>\nscheme of amalgamation of Bindi Developers Private Limited with the<br \/>\nTransferee Company has been recently sanctioned by this Hon&#8217;ble<br \/>\ncourt on 17th March 2011. Upon the said scheme being<br \/>\neffective, the amount of Goodwill shall be reflected in its books<br \/>\nwhich is now proposed to be adjusted against the Securities Premium<br \/>\nAccount of the Transferee Company under the current scheme. This<br \/>\nbeing not against any applicable provisions of law, does not call for<br \/>\nany further direction or objection. Hence, the reduction of capital<br \/>\nas envisaged under clause 12.1 to 12.3 of the scheme is hereby<br \/>\ngranted and the minutes under Sec. 103 (1) of the Act, as  per para<br \/>\n21 of the petition are hereby approved.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.\t\tIt<br \/>\nhas been further pointed out that vide clause 10(i) of the scheme,<br \/>\nthe compliance of the Accounting Standard- 14 is already provided and<br \/>\nthe subsequent clauses are only enabling clauses and are not<br \/>\ncontradictory to the said compliance. Considering the said<br \/>\nexplanation, the observation of the Regional Director does not<br \/>\nsurvive.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.\t\tHeard<br \/>\nSmt. Swati Saurabh Soparkar, learned advocate for the petitioner<br \/>\ncompany and Shri Iqbal A. Shaikh, the counsel appearing for the<br \/>\nCentral Govt.. Having gone through the petitions, and having<br \/>\nconsidered the submissions made in this regard and being satisfied<br \/>\nthat amalgamation as well as Reduction of Capital as envisaged under<br \/>\nthe proposed scheme would be in the interest of the companies and<br \/>\ntheir members and creditors.  Prayers in terms of paragraph 15 (a) of<br \/>\nthe Co. Pet. No. 163 of 2010 and para 22(a) and (b) of the Co.<br \/>\nPetition No. 164 are hereby granted.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.\tThe<br \/>\npetitions are disposed of accordingly.
