1 CS FINAL COMPANY LAW MEANING & NATURE OF A COMPANY Chapter Meaning: A company may be defined as a voluntary association of persons who have come together for carrying on some business and sharing the profits there from Prof. Haney: A company is an artificial person created by law, having separate entity with perpetual succession and a common seal. Justice James: A company is an association of persons united for a common object. Nature and characteristics: The company is a voluntary association of persons. Separate legal identity. Perpetual succession. Transferability of shares - Freely transferable. Limited Liability of person up to nominal value of shares held by them. Entitled to hold property in its own name. Capacity to sue and be sued. Centralized and democratic governance. Is company a Citizen? Although company is regarded a legal person (though artificial), it is not a Citizen either under the Constitution of India or the Citizenship Act, The Supreme court of India in State Trading corporation of India Vs. C. T. O.(1963) held that a corporation can not have a status of citizen under the Constitution of India. Fundamental rights of shareholders are not lost when they associate to form a company- Bennet Coleman Co. vs. Union of India: Distinction between company and a partnership: Company is a distinct legal person. A partnership is not distinct from the several person who compose it. In case of a company, its property belongs to the Company and not to the individuals comprising it. In a partnership, the property of a firm belongs to the individuals comprising it. Members of the company are not its agents. Partners are the agents of the firm. A partner can not contract with his firm, whereas a member of a company can.
2 Companies shares are ordinarily transferable. Whereas a partner can not transfer his share without the consent of other partner. A company being creature of law can only be dissolved as laid down by law. A partnership firm is the result of agreement and dissolved at any time by agreement. Body corporate It broadly means a corporate entity which has a legal existence. The term "body corporate" is defined in Section 2(11) of the Companies Act, This includes a private company, public company, one personal company, small company, Limited Liability Partnerships, foreign company- body corporate or corporation also includes a company incorporated outside India. However, body corporate does not include (i) a co-operative society registered under any law relating to co-operative societies; and (ii) any other body corporate (not being a company as defined in the Companies Act 2013), which the Central Government may, by notification, specify in this behalf; Supreme Court in Board of Trustees Vs. State of Delhi, A. I. R. 1962; A society registered under the Societies Registration Act does not come within the purview of 'body corporate' ILLEGAL ASSOCIATION [Section 464] Without registration under the companies Act, or any other Indian laws no company, association or partnership that has for its object, the acquisition of gain consisting of more than 50 persons be formed. Consequences of Non-registration: 1. No legal existence. 2. Unlimited personal liability of member. 3. It cannot enter into contract 4. It cannot sue of to be sued by others. 5. It cannot contract debt 6. It cannot be debtor of creditor for any debt.
3 7. However income of the association will be taxable. 8. Fine which may extend upto Rs. 1 Lac per member Exceptionsa. HUF carrying on any business b. Association or partnership, if formed by professionals who are governed by Special Acts. Advantages of incorporation: 1. Corporate Personality: A company has as independent corporate existence; it has a legal personality of its own. It can enter into contracts, open a bank account, can sue and be sued by others; it can own property in its own name. A company is a juristic person independent of its members. Even if a person holds virtually all the shares the rights and obligations of the company shall be different from its members. The company's money and property belong to the company and not to the shareholders. The member's personal property cannot be held liable to pay the creditors of the company. In Saloman Vs. Saloman & Co. Ltd. It was held that company is a different person altogether from its members, It is not possible in case of partnership firm. Salomon was a leather merchant. He converted his business into a ltd. Company Salomon CO. Ltd. The comp. so formed consisted of Salomon, his wife and five children as members. The company purchased the business of Salomon for 39,000 Dollars, the purchase consideration was paid in terms of 10,000 dollars debentures conferring a charge over the companies assets 20,000 dollars in fully paid and 1 dollar share each and the balance in cash. The company within a year ran into difficulties and liquidation proceedings commenced. The assets of the company were not even sufficient to discharge the debentures (held entirely by Salomon). And nothing was left for unsecured creditors. It was held by the House of Lords that the company was validly constituted. The business belonged to the company and not to Salomon. 2. Perpetual succession: An incorporated company has perpetual succession. The life of a company is not related to the life of members. The life of the company is not affected by death or insolvency, retirement or transfer of shares of members. Members may come and members may go, the company continues until is dissolved. 3. Limited liability: The liability of a member shall be limited to the nominal value of the shares held by him. Once he has paid the full amount on the shares held by him, he couldn't be called upon to bear the loss from him personal property. In the case of a company limited by guarantee, the liability of members is limited up to the amount guaranteed by a member. 4. Transferability of Shares: The shares of a company are freely transferable. A shareholder can transfer his shares to any
4 person without the consent of other members. A Company cannot impose any restrictions on the rights of members to transfer their shares. However, the articles shall lay down the procedure of transfer of shares; otherwise it will be governed by table A. 5. Separate Property: Because of its corporate personality, a company can own and transfer property in its own name. Although the shareholders have contributed to the capital of the company, they do not become the part owners of its property. Property of the company should not be treated as member's property or vice versa. In B. F. Guzdar Case the court held that no member can claim himself to be the owner of the company's property during its existence or on its winding up. 6. Capacity to Sue: A company is a juristic person & therefore it can sue in its own name and be sued by others. In Abdul Haq v. Das, it was held that for the recovery of the any amount, the remedy lies against the company and not against the directors or members of the company. 7. Diversity of ownership from management: The company is managed by professional persons and they have the freedom to act in the interest of the company. Disadvantages of Incorporation: Formalities and Expenses Corporate disclosures. Greater social responsibilities. Greater tax burden. Detailed winding up procedure which is expensive and time consuming. Corporate Veil: When a company is formed and registered under the Companies Act, it acquires an independent legal entity distinct from the members. This principle of separate legal entity was established in the Case Saloman Vs. Saloman Co. ltd. Thus, when a company is incorporated all dealings are with the co. and all persons behind the company are disregarded however, important they may be. This means that there is a Veil drawn between the company and its members. Lifting or piercing the corporate veil: The main advantage of forming a company is to have a separate legal entity, the facade of corporate personality might have to be removed to identify the persons who are really guilty. This is known as Lifting Of Corporate Veil.
5 In case of dishonest and fraudulent use of facility of Incorporation, the law lifts the corporate veil and identifies the persons (members) who are behind the scene and are responsible for the perpetration of fraud. It means identification of a company with its members and when this veil is lifted, the individual members may be held liable for its acts wherever necessary for the courts to pierce the corporate veil and look to the person who are in fact the real beneficiaries. The companies Act itself has provided for certain cases making the members or directors personally liable. These are; The Companies Act, 2013 itself contains some provisions [Sections 7(7), 251(1) and 339] which lift the corporate veil to reach the real forces of action. A. Statutory Recognition of Lifting of Corporate Veil Section 7(7) deals with punishment for incorporation of company by furnishing false information; Section 251(1) deals with liability for making fraudulent application for removal of name of company from the register of companies. Section 339 deals with liability for fraudulent conduct of business during the course of winding up. Where small scale industries were given certain exemptions and the company owning an industry was controlled by some group of persons or companies, it was held that it was permissible to lift the veil of the company to see whether it was the subsidiary of another company and, therefore, not entitled to the proposed exemptions. [Inalsa Ltd. v. Union of India, (1996) 87 Com Cases 599 (Delhi).] B. Lifting of Corporate Veil under Judicial Interpretation (1) For determining the character or status of a company: When it is suspected that the company is owned or controlled by enemies of the country, the court may lift the corporate veil and examine the character of persons in the real control of company. [Daimler Co. Ltd. Vs. Continental Tyre & Rubber Co. Ltd.] (2) For the protection of revenue: If a company is used as a means to evade tax, the courts may disregard the corporate veil. In Juggilal Kamlapat Vs. Commissioner of Income Tax, U.P. the Supreme Court held that the court is entitled to lift the mask of corporate entity if it is used for tax evasion or to circumvent tax obligations. In such a case, shareholders may be held liable to pay income tax. (3) For preventing fraud or improper conduct: The court may also lift the corporate veil of a company where it appears that the company was formed only of some fraudulent purpose, to defraud creditors or to avoid legal obligations. In such cash cases shareholders were held to be persons who actually work for the
6 corporation. [Tata Engg. Locomotive Co. Ltd. Vs. State of Bihar] (4) Where the doctrine conflicts with Public policy: Where the corporate veil conflicts with public policy, the court lifts the veil for protecting the public policy. [Connors Ltd. Vs. Connors] (5) Avoidance of welfare legislation:- It is as common as avoidance of taxation and the approach in considering problems arising out of such avoidance has necessarily to be the same and, therefore, where it was found that the sole purpose for the formation of the new company was to use it as a device to reduce the amount to be paid by way of bonus to workmen, the Supreme Court upheld the piercing of the veil to look at the real transaction. (The Workmen Employed in Associated Rubber Industries Limited, Bhavnagar v. The Associated Rubber Industries Ltd A.I.R SC 1.) Officer who is in default [Section 2(60)] -means any of the following officers of a company, namely: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) whole-time director; key managerial personnel; where there is no key managerial personnel, such director or directors as specified by the Board in this behalf and who has or have given his or their consent in writing to the Board to such specification, or all the directors, if no director is so specified; any person who, under the immediate authority of the Board or any key managerial personnel, is charged with any responsibility including maintenance, filing or distribution of accounts or records, authorises, actively participates in, knowingly permits, or knowingly fails to take active steps to prevent, any default; (v) any person in accordance with whose advice, directions or instructions the Board of Directors of the company is accustomed to act, other than a person who gives advice to the Board in a professional capacity; (vi) every director, in respect of a contravention of any of the provisions of this Act, who is aware of such contravention by virtue of the receipt by him of any proceedings of the Board or participation in such proceedings without objecting to the same, or where such contravention had taken place with his consent or connivance; (vii) in respect of the issue or transfer of any shares of a company, the share transfer agents, registrars and merchant bankers to the issue or transfer. Relative [Section 2(77)] Sec 2(77) of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 4 of Companies (Specification of definitions details) Rules, 2014 defines RELATIVE. A person is deemed to be a relative of another if (a) They are members of a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF); (b) They are husband and wife; or (c) The one is related to the other in the manner indicated as-
7 Father (Provided that the term Father includes step-father) Mother (Provided that the term Mother includes the step-mother) Son (Provided that the term Son includes the step-son) Son s wife. Daughter. Daughter s husband. Brother (Provided that the term Brother includes the step-brother) Sister (Provided that the term Sister includes the step-sister) SIDDHARTH ACADEMY
