Authority: National Company Law Tribunal Kochi Bench
Order Date: 16 July 2026
Case Overview
The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Kochi Bench, comprising Shri Vinay Goel (Member Judicial) and Shri Ravichandran Ramasamy (Member Technical), heard matters related to Company Petition No. CP(C/ACT)/10/KOB/2024. The petition was filed by K P Sreedharan Nambiar against Synthetic Detergents Ltd and four other respondents under Sections 213, 241(1), and 242(4) of the Companies Act. The petitioner was represented by advocate Haira Solomon, while the respondents were represented by the firm Menon & Pai.
During the hearing, Proxy Counsel Mr. Rahul appeared physically for the applicant, while the respondents' counsel, Ms. Ramola Nayanpally, appeared virtually. The applicant's counsel requested a short passover, and the case was passed over for 15 minutes. When the matter was taken up again, the learned counsel for the applicant, despite having logged in through the portal, was neither visible nor audible. Additionally, the counsel for the respondents was unable to respond to the Tribunal's query regarding the shareholding of the applicant.
Final Outcome
Due to these technical difficulties and the inability to obtain necessary information, the Tribunal adjourned both the main company petition (CP(C/ACT)/10/KOB/2024) and the connected interlocutory application (IA(C/ACT)/104/KOB/2025) to 07 September 2026 for further hearing.
