      If simply put up, strike off companies have a ray of hope for rebuilding after much talk about the surgical strike against shell companies. There is no doubt, that this might as well affect the anti-corruption image of present government in power.

      As per the tagline of the latest detergent advertisement, which states that “stains are good” this should be adopted by strike off companies as well. There is good news for all strike off companies with income tax proceedings. A circular for the same was issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes that brought back life to such strike off companies. It was stated that on or before January 04,2018, NCLT, vide its interim orders, directs 46 strike-off companies to be deemed to be restored to its original number and entitles petitioner, income Tax Department to raise demand by serving notice in accordance with law.

      As per the provisions of Section 248 Sub section 6, the assets of the striked off company shall be made available for the payment or discharge of all its liabilities as well as obligations even after the date of the order clearing away the name of organisations from the Companies register. 

      Under subsection 248 (7) it is mandatory that the accountability of every director, manager or other officers who were exercising any power of management and of every member of the company dissolved under sub section (5) shall continue and may be required in case the company has not disclosed about the same. As per section 250 of the Companies Act, 2013 where a company stands dissolved, it shall cease to operate as a company except for the purpose of realising the amount due to the company and the payment or discharge of the liabilities or obligations of the organisations.

      But, there are uncertainties too regarding proceedings that are already under way as per the Income Tax Act.

      No, NCLT does not have jurisdiction to remove the disqualification of directors.
