CAs’ clean chit can’t stall co's folding: Supreme Court{br} https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

In Antrix-Devas judgment, SC ruled that proceeding for winding up of a company on ground of perpetrations of fraud can't be stalled by shareholders citing reports from CAs, auditors giving clean chit or non-discovery of fraud. SC junked arguments of Devas and shareholders that since the auditors’ reports of 2012, 2016, 2017 and 2020 certified “no fraud on or by the company has been noticed or reported during the course of the audit”, the Antrix-Devas deal was terminated not on fraud grounds.
