1.,"Para 9 (a)

â€" Page 4","The valuation has not been carried out

by registered valuer in terms of Rule

27 of the Companies (Compromise,

Arrangement and Amalgamation)

Rules, 2016","The date of valuation in the present matter is

9th December 2018. The relevant circular

dated 27th October 2018 has referred that the

valuation through registered valuer will carry

out w.e.f. 1â€​ February 2019. In the present

case, the valuation report is on 9th December

2018. At that point of time, there was no

requirement for carrying out the valuation

through registered valuer.

2.,"Para 9 (b)

â€" Page 4","The appointed date is 1â€​ April 2018,

however the value of the share is based

on the assets and liability on 8th

December 2018.

The Board considered the valuation of

share on 8th December 2018.

However, the valuation report refers

the date on 9th December 2019.","The asset and liability as on 8th December

2018 has been taken on the basis of the latest

financial statement to exchange ratio of

valuation of shares. There is no legal embargo

to take the said financial statement.

It is not necessary that the assets and liability

as on appointed date should be taken i.e. .1st

April 2018.

There was a typographical error in date of

valuation report. It was mentioned as 9th

December 2019. Factually, the date of

valuation is 9th December 2018. The valuer

has issued the letter for admitting the said

typographical mistake which has been

enclosed with the response affidavit.

3.,"Para 9(c)

â€"Page 5-6","The objection for taking the fresh

approval for inserting the main objects

of the Transferor Company into

Transferee Company in terms of

Section 13 of the Companies Act, 2013","It is stated that the issues no longer res

integra. The Transferee Company, after the

Scheme of Amalgamation, can carry out the

objects of the Transferor Company without

complying the provisions of Section 13 of the

Companies Act, 2013.

4.,"Para 11 (a)

â€" Page 6","The Report from the ROC

Chhattisgarh where registered office of

the Transferor Company may be

separately obtained.","The Hon'ble Tribunal has already passed the

directions to the RD to that effect in the

previous orders.

5.,"Para 11 (b)

â€"Page 6-7","The addition of authorized capital of

Transferor Company into Transferor

Company. The companies are required

to follow the provisions of Section

232(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013.

The clause has not been mentioned in

the Scheme.","It has also been stated through an affidavit

that the authorized capital of the Transferor

Company be added in Transferee Company

upon sanctioning of the Scheme in terms

Section 232(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013

after the dissolution of Transferor Company

and fee, if any paid by the Transferor Company
