FAQs – Corporate Liquidation and Recovery Proceedings in District Court

1️⃣ What is the role of a District Court in company liquidation or recovery matters?

While the primary jurisdiction for liquidation lies with the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), District Courts handle related civil recovery suits, enforcement of decrees, attachment proceedings, and execution of orders issued under liquidation or insolvency processes.

2️⃣ Can a Liquidator file a recovery suit in a District Court?

Yes. A Company Liquidator or Official Liquidator can file a recovery suit in the District Court after obtaining permission from the NCLT under Section 279 of the Companies Act, 2013. Such suits are filed to recover dues, enforce claims, or secure company assets.

3️⃣ When does a Liquidator need legal representation in District Court?

A Liquidator requires court representation for recovery proceedings, execution of decrees, injunctions against defaulters, or disputes involving company assets. Legal assistance ensures compliance with court procedures and timely progress in such matters.

4️⃣ How does a Liquidator initiate a recovery action against a defaulter?

After obtaining NCLT approval, the Liquidator may issue a legal notice to the defaulter and, if unpaid, file a civil recovery suit before the District Court having jurisdiction over the debtor’s place of business or property.

5️⃣ What documents are required for filing a recovery case under liquidation?

Essential documents include:

• Copy of NCLT liquidation order

• Proof of debt or claim details

• Correspondence or transaction documents with the debtor

• Authorisation letter from the Liquidator

• Statement of account and company records

6️⃣ Can proceedings in District Court run parallel to NCLT proceedings?

Yes, but only after obtaining leave of the NCLT, ensuring that the court action does not conflict with the ongoing liquidation process. Both proceedings often complement each other to achieve recovery or enforcement.

7️⃣ What types of cases arise during corporate liquidation?

Common matters include:

• Civil recovery suits for unpaid dues

• Execution of decrees or awards

• Attachment and injunction petitions

• Property possession and asset protection matters

8️⃣ How long does a recovery proceeding in District Court usually take?

The duration depends on the nature of the dispute and response from the opposite party. However, with proper documentation and representation, cases involving clear debts can progress efficiently within a few months.

9️⃣ Can Liquidators appoint advocates outside their own city or state?

Yes. Liquidators and Insolvency Professionals frequently appoint local advocates in different jurisdictions to represent matters before District Courts, ensuring efficient local coordination and cost-effective litigation.
