Authority: National Company Law Tribunal Kochi Bench (Shri Vinay Goel, Member (Judicial) and Shri Ravichandran Ramasamy, Member (Technical))

Order Date: 15 June 2026

Case Overview

The matter concerns Execution Petition No. 3/KOB/2024, which originates from Company Petition No. CP/125/KOB/2019. The petitioners are Rajkumar Gupta and Another, while the respondents are RBG Retail Private Limited and six others. The current hearing was for an Interlocutory Application (IA(C/ACT)/9/KOB/2026) filed within the execution proceedings. Learned Counsel Mr. Akhil Suresh appeared virtually for the applicants. Learned Representing Counsel Mr. Naveen appeared physically for Respondents 1, 2, 3, and 5 (RBG Retail Private Limited is presumed to be one of these). No representation was noted for the other respondents.

Both parties jointly informed the tribunal that a related matter concerning this case is pending before the Hon'ble High Court of Kerala, which has been reserved for orders. Based on this, they collectively requested a long adjournment of the NCLT proceedings.

Final Outcome

The NCLT Kochi Bench granted the joint request for a long adjournment. Consequently, both the Interlocutory Application (IA(C/ACT)/9/KOB/2026) and the main Execution Petition (EP/3/KOB/2024) have been adjourned to 19 August 2026. The order specifies that the parties retain the liberty to file an application for preponement (an earlier hearing date) if the need arises.
