Issues:
1. Validity of notice served by the Official Liquidator for recovery of a sum of money. 2. Allegation of non-receipt of notices by the applicant and subsequent challenge to the maintainability of the execution petition. 3. Disbursement of loan to the applicant and the question of recovery. Analysis: 1. The court initially decided on Company Application No. 25/2000, where the applicant was served notice for the demand of a sum of Rs. 1,90,000 with interest. Despite notice and service, the applicant failed to make payment, leading to an application under sections 446 and 447 of the Companies Act, 1956. The court ordered the recovery of Rs. 3,11,600 with interest at the rate of 12 per cent per annum. 2. Subsequently, an Execution Petition (Company Execution Petition No. 9/04) was filed by the Official Liquidator, which led to the filing of Company Application No. 1/07 by the applicant. The applicant alleged non-service of notices and challenged the maintainability of the execution petition. However, upon perusal of records, it was confirmed that notices were indeed served on the applicant, and the objection raised was dismissed by the court. 3. The applicant's counsel argued that the loan was never disbursed to the applicant, thus questioning the basis of the recovery. Despite the applicant's opportunity to present a defense at various stages, including notice served by the Official Liquidator and during the proceedings, the court found merit in the documents provided by the Official Liquidator, such as the loan application form, confirming the disbursement of the loan. As the premise of the applicant's challenge regarding notice was unfounded, the court dismissed the application.
