4. Alterations in restrictive provisions and winding up.

So long as a notification issued under section 3 is in force in respect of any company, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Act-

(2)a resolution for the voluntary winding up of the company shall be of no effect unless the Central Government authorizes or ratifies it by a written consent;
(3)any Court which has jurisdiction to wind up the company may in its discretion refuse to make a winding up order. In the exercise of its discretion, the Court shall be guided by the consideration whether the winding up is bona fide with a view to the discontinuance of the undertaking, or is with a view to continuing the undertaking freed either wholly or in part from any restrictive provision;
(4)the Central Government in giving consent, or the Court in making a winding up order, as the case may be, may impose such terms or conditions for giving effect to the purposes of this Act as ((Subs. by the A. O. 1937 for" he or it")) it] thinks fit.
