Overview

Within the dynamic landscape of Indian corporate life, unforeseen circumstances can occasionally lead to a company's name being struck off the Register of Companies. However, even for entities seemingly consigned to closure, the Companies Act, 2013 offers a beacon of hope: the transformative power of revival. This guide sheds light on the path for companies seeking to rise from the ashes and reclaim their rightful place within the Indian business ecosystem.

Section 252 of the Companies Act, 2013 empowers various parties to petition for the revival of a struck-off company, primarily:

  • The company itself or its members: This provision allows companies experiencing temporary lapses to overcome compliance hurdles and re-establish their corporate standing.
  • Creditors and employees: For these stakeholders, revival safeguards financial interests by facilitating the settlement of outstanding dues and entitlements.
  • Any other person aggrieved by the striking off: This expansive clause enables anyone demonstrably impacted by the closure, such as business partners or investors, to seek its reversal.
Eligibility Criteria:

Not all struck-off companies are eligible for revival. Specific prerequisites must be met:

● Timely Petition: The petition must be filed within three years of the company’s strike-off order.

● Demonstrably Just and Equitable Justification: The petitioner must present compelling evidence establishing a justifiable reason for revival, such as inadvertent errors, unforeseen hardships, or potential benefits to stakeholders through restoration.

● Maximum Duration: The company’s name must not have been struck off for more than 20 years.

Benefits of Revival:

Restoring a struck-off company offers several advantages:

● Second Opportunity: This provides the entity with a fresh start, allowing it to resume operations and reclaim its market position.

● Debt Resolution: Revival paves the way for resolving outstanding dues to creditors and employees, ensuring they receive rightful compensation.

● Dispute Resolution: It helps clear the path for resolving legal disputes and reclaiming assets frozen due to the strike-off.

● Enhanced Stakeholder Confidence: Successful revival demonstrates the company’s commitment to overcoming challenges and adhering to legal frameworks, potentially rebuilding trust with stakeholders.

Detailed Step-wise Procedure:

The revival process follows a defined and meticulous course:

1. Petition Drafting and Filing: A carefully crafted petition outlining the grounds for revival and supported by compelling evidence is filed with the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT).

2. Notice and Service: The NCLT directs the Registrar of Companies (ROC) and relevant stakeholders to be served with the petition and invited to file responses.

3. Hearing and Arguments: The NCLT hears arguments from all parties involved and scrutinizes the petition’s merits and supporting evidence.

4. Order and Revival: Based on the hearing, the NCLT issues an order either dismissing or granting the petition. If granted, the company’s name is restored to the Register of Companies, marking its official revival.

Required Documents:

To strengthen your petition, be prepared to provide:

● Certified copies of the company’s Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA).
● Board resolutions authorising the petition filing.
● The strike-off order issued by the ROC.
● Comprehensive evidence supporting the revival grounds, such as affidavits, financial statements, or legal documents.
● Proof of service of the petition on relevant parties.
