JUDGEMENT

K.S Hegde, J. - (1.) This is an appeal by special leave. It arises from the decision of the appellate bench of the Bombay High Court in Appeal No. 113 of 1969 on its file. That appeal was directed against the order made by Kantawala, J. in Company Petition No. 100 of 1969, a petition made by the Registrar of the Companies under Section 433 of the companies Act, 1956 for winding up the appellant company.

On the date of the hearing the appellant appeared through an advocate and asked for an adjournment of the proceedings. That prayer was rejected and thereafter the Company Judge passed the following order:"Mr. Chagla for company applies for adjournment with a view to approach the Government. This petition is filed by the Registrar after the Central Government heard the Company so it is not necessary to adjourn it on this ground. P. C. Petition admitted to be advertised in Indian Express, Bombay Samachar and Maharashtra Government Gazette. Advertisement to appear on or before 29th September, 1969. Petition on board on 27th October, 1969."
