JUDGMENT

These appeals under Section 483 of the Companies

Act, 1956 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act' for short)

arise out of an order dated 28.08.2013 passed by the

learned Company Judge on a petition under Section

433(f) of the Act filed by the shareholders of the

company. OSA No.12/2013 has been filed by the

company, whereas, OSA No.17/2013 has been filed by

shareholders of the company.

2. Facts giving rise to filing of these appeals

briefly stated are that Century Galaxy Development

Limited (hereinafter referred to as 'the Company' for

short) is a company incorporated under the Act for the

purposes of infrastructure development, more

particularly, building of flats, office spaces, commercial

complexes and to sell, rent or allot the same to its

members.

- 50 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

3. The company under a deed of transfer dated

23.03.1998 obtained title in respect of lands situate at

Kodihalli Village, Bangalore. The company formulated a

scheme and developed the aforesaid property into multi

storied residential and commercial complexes. Under

the scheme, any person intending to acquire a

residential or commercial unit in the complex are

required to obtain two equity shares of Rs.10/- each per

square foot of super built up area and 400 equity shares

of Rs.10/- each per car parking space. The scheme

provided that residential or commercial units could be

allotted in the form of distinctive number of shares and

the ownership of the land as well as super structure

always remain vested with the appellant. The

respondents in OSA No.12/2013 (hereinafter referred to

as 'the shareholders' for short), were allotted apartments

in the complex owned by the company.

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

4. The shareholders after a period of 20 years,

staked a claim to ownership of the apartments on the

ground that an agreement was executed between the

company and the shareholders that the apartments

would be transferred to them. The company had taken

up a stand and asserted that the company is the owner

of the apartments / commercial units and the

agreement to transfer the ownership absolutely to the

shareholders does not exist.

5. The shareholders filed a petition under

Section 433(f) of the Act for winding up of the company

on the ground that it is just and equitable to wind up

the company. The shareholders raised issues like loss

of substratum, loss of trust on account of lack of probity

and fair dealing, errors in accounting procedure,

flouting of accounting principles, misappropriation of

funds, visible evidence and tax evasion and failure on

the part of the company to conform to the contract. The

- 52 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

company supported stand by filing copies of deeds of

transfer, balance sheets and annual reports and raised

a detailed objection to the maintainability of the

petition.

6. The learned Company Judge by an order

dated 28.03.2013 inter alia held that there is a dispute

about the nature of relationship between the parties,

payments received, terms of transactions. It was further

held that prima facie the shareholders appear to be the

owners of residential apartments, which were allotted to

them in the name and style of shares. The question

therefore, calls for an answer at the hands of the court

after a trial by lifting the veil. It was further held that

shareholders had filed a writ petition viz.,

W.P.No.18969/2005, which according to the

shareholders was pending. However, it was held that

questions relating to dispute over ownership and

management of the company calls for adjudication to

- 53 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

arrive at just conclusions. The petition was therefore,

admitted and the advertisement was deferred until trial.

In the aforesaid factual background, the company has

filed OSA No.12/2013, whereas, shareholders have filed

OSA No.17/2013.

7. Learned Senior Counsel for the company

submitted that the orders passed by the learned

Company Judge is a non speaking order and the

condition precedent for passing an order under Section

433(f) of the Act has not been fulfilled inasmuch as no

finding has been recorded in the order that it is just and

equitable that company should be wound up. It is also

urged that the shareholders have taken recourse to a

remedy available to them under the Karnataka

Ownership Flats (Regulation of Promotion of

Construction, Sale, Management and Transfer) Act,

1972, in which an order was passed by Deputy

Registrar of Cooperative Societies on 12.03.2015 in

- 54 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

favour of shareholders. It is further submitted that the

aforesaid order has been stayed by Learned Single

Judge by an order dated 17.11.2015 passed in

W.P.No.38788/2015, which still operates. It is also

urged that several of the shareholders have filed civil

suits seeking ownership rights in respect of residential

apartments in question and therefore, the learned

Company Judge ought not to have made an order as the

remedy was available to shareholders, which they had

already availed.

8. Though counsel for shareholders had logged

in through video conferencing and was observing the

proceedings, however, despite repeated queries made,

Learned counsel for shareholders did not address any

arguments.

9. We have perused the record as well as the

order passed by learned company Judge. Before

proceeding further, it is apposite to take note of relevant

- 55 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

statutory provisions. Section 433 of the Act enumerates

the circumstances, in which the company may be

wound up. Section 433(f) reads as under:

433. Circumstances in which company may be wound up by tribunal - A company may be wound up by the tribunal -

(a) xxxx

(f) if the Tribunal is of the opinion that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up.

10. Section 443 of the Act deals with power of the

tribunal on hearing the petition. Section 443(2) reads as

under:

443. Powers Of Tribunal On Hearing Petition-

(1) xxxxx

(2) Where the petition is presented on the ground that it is just and equitable that the

- 56 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

company should be wound, the Court may refuse to make an order of winding up, if it is of opinion that some other remedy is available to the petitioners and that they are acting unreasonably in seeking to have the company wound instead of pursuing that other remedy.

11. Thus, it is evident that sine qua non for

invoking powers under Section 433(f) of the Act is that

the court has to form an opinion that it is just and

equitable that the company should be wound up.

Similarly, under Section 443(2) of the Act, when a

petition for winding up of a company is presented on the

ground that it is just and equitable that the company

should be wound up, the court may refuse to make an

order of winding up on the ground that some other

remedy is available to the petitioners and that they are

acting unreasonably in seeking to have the company

wound up instead of pursing the other remedy.

- 57 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

12. We find force in the submission made by

Learned Senior Counsel for the company that the order

passed by learned company Judge does not assign any

cogent reasons. In para 1 to 14, the learned company

Judge has recorded submissions. Thereafter, in para 15

and 16, it has been held that the dispute between the

parties requires a trial after lifting the veil and the

questions relating to dispute over ownership and

management of the company calls for adjudication to

arrive at the just conclusion. Para 17 is the operative

portion of the order. The order nowhere reflects the

opinion of the learned Company Judge that it is just

and equitable to wind up the company. The impugned

order therefore, has been passed in violation of the

mandate contained in Section 433(f) of the Act.

13. It is also relevant to mention that some of the

shareholders ad approached the Deputy Registrar

under the 1972 Act and the Deputy registrar had

- 58 -

NC: 2023:KHC:20988-DB OSA No.12 of 2013 C/W OSA No.17 of 2013

passed an order in favour of the shareholders on

12.03.2015. The aforesaid order passed by the Deputy

Registrar has been stayed by Learned Single Judge of

this court by an order dated 17.11.2015 in

W.P.No.38788/2015. Some of the shareholders have

filed the civil suits. Thus, the shareholders have

resorted to the remedy available to them under the law.

The shareholders had filed the petitions seeking winding

up of the company after an inordinate delay of 20 years

and therefore, it can safely be inferred that the

shareholders are acting unreasonably in seeking

winding up of the company instead of pursuing to the

remedies to which they have already resorted to.

Therefore, in the light of provisions contained in Section

443(2) of the Act, the learned Company Judge ought not

to have entertained the petition.

14. In view of preceding analysis, the order dated

28.08.2013 passed by the learned Company Judge on a
