Company Law Matters Before the NCLT

Q: What kinds of company law matters go to the NCLT?

A broad range including certain applications relating to shares and capital, schemes of arrangement, oppression and mismanagement, revival, compounding of certain offences, and insolvency proceedings, with the appropriate route depending on the specific issue.

Q: Can Chartered Accountants appear before the NCLT?

In many matters professionals such as Chartered Accountants are permitted to appear before the NCLT as authorised representatives, subject to applicable rules, and for matters requiring legal advocacy we coordinate with legal counsel.

Q: Why is professional support important for NCLT matters?

NCLT proceedings are technical and procedure-driven, and mistakes in applications or documentation can cause delays or adverse outcomes. Professional support ensures the matter is correctly assessed, properly prepared, and effectively represented.
