% 14.02.2023

1. Learned counsel for the petitioner states that all these petitioners have wrongly arrayed in the complaint despite the fact that they were employees of the main promoter company M/s. Bhusan Steel Limited and were as directors in various shell companies and were not involved in any of the transactions and, therefore, they cannot be charged for offences punishable under Sections 447/448 of the Companies Act.

2. The learned counsel for the petitioners shall place two page guiding note on the arguments that he wishes to supplement before the next date.

3. Various counsels appear on behalf of the SFIO in different matters as part of this batch. They will also respond to these points on the next date. The learned counsel for the petitioners will give an advance copy to the counsels before the next date of hearing.

4. List on 23rd March, 2023.

5. Learned counsel pleads that he wishes to seek accommodation before the Trial Court pending the hearing of the matter before this Court. He is at liberty to do so, however, this Court is not passing any direction in that regard.

6. Order be uploaded on the website of this Court.
