The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) has said that the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) should not hear any third party, other than the applicant who has taken a company to the NCLT and the company which is the corporate debtor itself, at the time of the admission of a case.

With the last streaks of daylight fading on a mild October evening, the cars pulled up in waves at Pieros Italian Cuisine, an old-school Las Vegas hotspot known for its osso buco.
Cadillacs with tinted windows. Taxis and rideshares. A black Bentley limousine and a white minivan. Men and women emerged, most casually dressed, there for the first of a series of posh, private events hosted by the video gambling industry during the 2018 Global Gaming Expo, North Americas largest gambling trade show. They included gambling executives, lobbyists and about a dozen Illinois lawmakers.

New Delhi: The Congress left behind the legacy of an anachronic system of resolving commercial insolvency. The Companies Act had a provision of winding up a company if it is unable to pay its debt.
