2023 (12) TMI 1177 - AT - Companies LawOppression and Mismanagement - shareholding slightly less than the threshold of 10% shareholding required for filing Petition under Sections 241 & 242 as per provisions of Section 244 of the Act - HELD THAT:- It is apparent that each branch of the family is represented in the Company and for resolution of any dispute, it will be better that each branch of the family is represented in the proceeding and is heard. We feel no prejudice shall be caused to anyone if the impleadment application is allowed. Wherever the Court is of the opinion that by adding any party, it would be in a better position to effectually and completely adjudicate upon the controversy, it is proper to exercise judicial discretion in impleading the said party. The Appellants herein are daughters of late Mr. Tarsem Singh and sister of Respondent No. 3, against whom allegations of Oppression and Mismanagement have been made. The Appellants have a defined subsisting, direct and substantive interest in resolution of the controversy and are necessary and expedient to be impleaded in the said Petition. The Appellants are Shareholders of the Respondent No. 1 Company and are family members of the other Shareholders. They are concerned with the affairs of the Company and their arraignment as party to the proceedings would facilitate an effective, efficacious, just and fair adjudication of the case. It is held that they are proper and necessary party and their impleadment will assist in arriving at the correct decision in C.P. No. 129/ND/2019 pending with NCLT. Appeal allowed.
