Order Date: 16th July, 2026

Case Overview

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Allahabad Bench is hearing Company Petition No. 45/ALD/2026 filed by Shakunta Packers Private Limited under Section 252(3) of the Companies Act, 2013 against the Registrar of Companies (ROC), Uttar Pradesh and another respondent. The petition appears to be seeking restoration of the company, which is a common remedy under Section 252(3) when a company has been struck off the register.

During the hearing, counsel for both the ROC and Income Tax Department appeared and accepted notice of the proceedings. The tribunal has directed both regulatory departments to file their detailed replies and reports within two weeks. The petitioner company is required to file any rejoinder within one week after receiving the departments' replies.

Final Outcome

The tribunal has issued formal notice to the ROC and Income Tax Department and set a procedural timeline for completion of pleadings. The matter has been adjourned to 30th July, 2026 for further hearing, by which time all replies and rejoinders must be filed. This is an interim procedural order that moves the restoration petition forward for substantive consideration at the next hearing.
