Briefly stated, the petitioner-company was incorporated on September 7, 1995, under the provisions of the Act as a company limited by shares. After incorporation, the company had to commence its business as financial and investment consultant, however, the promoters of the company considering the market conditions did not undertake any business activity. Thereafter, the board of directors of the company vide resolution dated March 15, 2004, decided to make an application before the Registrar of Companies under "simplified exit scheme" framed by the Government of India under Section 560 of the Act. In pursuance to the said resolution passed by the board of directors an application was moved before the Registrar on June 11, 2004, for declaring the company "defunct" as provided under Section 560 of the Act. The Registrar in exercise of its powers under Section 560(3) of the Act declared the company "defunct" and published the said declaration in the Official Gazette in terms of the provisions contained in Section 560 of the Act. 4.

It has been averred by the petitioner that the shareholders of the company are now of the opinion that the circumstances leading to closure of activities of the company and non-commencement of business no longer exist and there are favourable circumstances under which the main business of the company as financial and investment consultant can be restarted in the best interest of the company, its shareholders and other concerned who may be directly or indirectly associated with the business activities of the company.
