Allahabad Bank vs Canara Bank & Another on 10 April, 2000
10. I have considered the respective submissions
made by the learned counsel for the parties and
perused the record. The Supreme Court in the case of
ALLAHABAD BANK, supra, has held that even when a
13
winding up order has been passed against a Company,
the adjudication of liability, and execution of the
recovery certificate in respect of debt payable to the
financial institutions lies within the exclusive jurisdiction
of Debt Recovery Tribunal and in such a case, the
Company Courts jurisdiction under Sections 442, 537
and 446 of the Act stands ousted. It has further been
held that no leave of the Company Court is necessary
for initiating the proceeding under the 1993 Act nor can
Company Court transfer to it or otherwise interfere with
such proceeding. It has further been held that since the
1993 Act is a special law, it prevails over the general
law, namely the Act. In view of aforesaid enunciation of
law, there is no legal impediment in the Recovery
Officer proceeding further with the recovery proceedings
under the 1993 Act.

M/S Anita International vs Tungabadra Sugar Works Maz.Sangh & Ors on 4 July, 2016
12. Sofar as decision relied upon by the learned
counsel for the petitioner in the case of ANITA
INTERNATIONAL, supra, is concerned, in the aforesaid
decision, the Supreme Court has dealt with the validity
of the conditions imposed by the Company Court for
permitting the Financial Institution to proceed with the
recovery proceeding before the Debt Recovery Tribunal.
In the aforesaid context, it was held that the order
passed by the Company Court was binding before the
Debt Recovery Tribunal. Besides that, it is pertinent to
mention here that in paragraph 51 of the aforesaid
decision, the Supreme Court has held that the issue
under consideration in the aforesaid decision is whether
or not an order passed by the Company Court was
binding on the Recovery Officer and whether the
proceeding conducted by the Recovery Officer in
violation of the above order were sustainable in law.
The aforesaid issue does not arise for consideration in
this petition. Therefore, the aforesaid decision has no
application to the obtaining factual matrix of the case as
16
the petitioner - Bank in the instant case has sought
quashment of order of attachment of assets and has
sought permission to surrender the shares.

Similarly
the decision of the Delhi High Court in M/s. IFCI LTD.,
supra, deals with the function of the Official Liquidator
to ensure that the claims of secured creditors are
satisfied. The aforesaid decision therefore is also of no
assistance to the respondents.
