THE HON’BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI C.A. NO.1478 OF 2010 IN C.P.NO.32 OF 2000 ORDER: Heard Sri M.Anil Kumar, learned counsel representing Official Liquidator. M/s. Tammana Chit Fund Private Limited was wound up and the Official Liquidator attached to this Court was appointed as Liquidator by order dated 13-7-2001 made in C.P.No.32 of 2000. Pursuant thereto, a notice was issued in the local dailies dated 25- 1-2008 inviting claims from the creditors of the company in liquidation. It is stated that in response to the said notification, only five claims were received within the last date fixed for receipt of claims i.e., 22-2-2008. However, subsequently, Official Liquidator received 30 more claims belatedly from the chit subscribers. As they are residing in different districts, and it is time consuming and difficult to file individual applications seeking relief under Rule 177 for condonation of delay in filing their claims, the present application has been filed by the Official Liquidator seeking permission to take on record the claims received after the last date fixed by condoning the delay. The list of subscribers whose claims have been received belatedly has been annexed to the petition. Having regard to the facts and circumstances explained in the affidavit filed by the Official Liquidator, I deem it appropriate to condone the delay in making claims. Accordingly, the application is allowed as prayed for and the Official Liquidator is hereby permitted to take on record the claims received after the last date fixed for receipt of claims as shown in annexure ‘A’ and proceed with adjudication on merits and process the same in accordance with law. ____________ G.ROHINI,J rkk Dated: 3-12-2010
