What the notification covers

Notification No. VI-3(a)/43/2014 is an advertisement of Company Petition No. 52 of 2014 before the High Court of Judicature at Madras in its original jurisdiction. The proceeding concerns a petition for winding up ETA Engineering Private Limited under the Companies Act, 1956.

The notification identifies:

  • Texmaco Rail & Engineering Limited as the petitioner.
  • ETA Engineering Private Limited as the respondent.
  • ETA Engineering Private Limited's registered office as No. 5, Moores Road, Chennai 600 006, Tamil Nadu.
  • Roc. No. 2096/2014/(O.S) as the court reference.
  • 23 January 2014 as the date on which the petition was presented.
  • 16 June 2014 as the date fixed for the hearing.

Who may be affected

The advertisement is relevant to creditors, contributories and other persons who wished to support or oppose the winding-up petition. It may also be relevant to anyone who had financial or business dealings with ETA Engineering Private Limited at the time of the proceeding.

The notification does not announce a winding-up order. It gives notice that a winding-up petition had been presented and was due to be heard by the High Court of Judicature at Madras.

The notification concerns a company proceeding, rather than the ownership, registration, classification or permitted use of land. A property buyer would therefore be affected only if the proposed transaction or claim involved ETA Engineering Private Limited or its interests.
