Further there is no direction made by the Tribunal.
ii) Regarding observation made in Para 15 of the report:: It is submitted that the Petitioner company made efforts/and has taken several actions to find a suitable candidate for the post of the Company Secretary, however since the Company had only little operations, it took time for the Company to find and appoint a Company Secretary. Company immediately upon finding a candidate who gave her consent to be appointed as Company Secretary appointed her as Company Secretary w.e.f. 01st July 2020. Board of Directors of the Company decided to compound the period of non-appointment of company secretary and compound the offence.

iii) Regarding observation made in para 16 of the ROC: The petitioner Company shall take necessary action to file affidavit to Hon'ble NCLT and ROC upon completion of the RBI compliance.
iv) Regarding observation made in para 17 of the ROC report: The Petitioner Company for a period of time subsequent to winding up of the manufacturing operations was performing nominal sales service. These sales services entailed the maintenance of certain key relationships for manufacturing opportunities for the Celestica group companies, outside of India. Since transitioning to these regional service activities, the company has required a great deal less capital. The Capital reduction is commensurate with this reduced footprint. The Company does not intend to liquidate; rather it will continue to operate service type activities for the Celestica network (group companies of the parent company).
v) Regarding observation made in Para 18 of the report: The Petitioner Company shall undertake to comply with Income Tax requirement and any implication thereto post reduction of capital.
vi) Regarding observation made in Para 19 of the report: As the valuation was Rs. 3.73/- per share as per the Valuation report, Shareholder decided that rounding off to near 4 will be again questionable by the RBI authority at time of compliance post approval of scheme of reduction. To ease the compliance, it was agreed to reduce by 3/- per share and Rs. 7/- will be written off from the books.
vii) Regarding observation made in Para 20 of the report: The Petitioner Company submitted that he shall take care of the future liability post reduction of share capital.
viii) Regarding observation made in Para 21 of the ROC report: it is submitted that qualified opinion from Auditor relating to delay in obtaining the Transfer pricing certifications/report under Section 92E of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and which was obtained later, and necessary returns filed with the penalty (For A.Y. 2018-19 on 16.01.2020 and A.Y. 19-20 on 28.11.2019). The management believes that penalties arising on account of such non-filing will not be material and the said transaction were service type transactions provided to Celestica group companies and also the transactions were at arm's length price. The Company has satisfied all historical obligations and will continue to meet all future obligations as they come due.
ix) Regarding observation made in Para 22 of the ROC report: It is submitted that accumulated losses relate to legacy manufacturing operations that have since wound down. The cash generated subsequent to the wind down of manufacturing operations remains on hand since the wind down. All transactions since are services in nature with commensurate mark up and supported by transfer pricing studies. Historical losses were generated when the company was unable to attract other customers manufacturing contracts, in order to achieve the underlying efficiencies required to continue manufacturing. This lack of business operations rendered the manufacturing operations unprofitable to due low capacity utilization. The site ultimately needed to be rationalized and wound down. The remaining indirect labour shifted to providing service type activities to the Celestica group companies. Further Company has complied with all the relevant RBI filing and as on date no filing is pending.
x) Regarding observation made in Para 23 of the report: It is submitted that in case of buy back under Section 68, company can buy back maximum upto to 25% of the paid up share capital and free reserves in a year by passing shareholder resolution at a general meeting, which company could not be able to achieve the reduction what it has planned, so it is decided to go for reduction of capital u/s. 66.
17. Heard Shri Shyam Sunder Learned Counsel for the Petitioner and Shri Hemanth Rao, Learned Counsel for the ROC/RD. We have carefully perused the pleadings of the parties and extant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules made thereunder.
18. The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner on 24.05.2022 was permitted the Petitioner to file proper affidavit with regard to the observation made in respect of FEMA/RBI guidelines. Pursuant to the same, the Petitioner Company has filed an affidavit vide Diary No. 2316 dated 30.05.2022 stating that "Both the shareholders of the Petitioner company are foreign nationals and hence, compliance of FEMA/RBI guidelines are to be complied. Hence in this regard the Petitioner Company shall file affidavit to show compliance of the same after approval of reduction of capital by the Hon'ble NCLT."
19. The Petitioner Company avails the option of reduction of paid-up share capital which is in consonance with Section 66 of the Companies Act, 2013. Following are the provisions:
"66. Reduction of Share capital.
(1) Subject to confirmation by the Tribunal on an application by the company, a company limited by shares or limited by guarantee and having a share capital may, by a special resolution, reduce the share capital in any manner and in, particular, may--
(a) extinguish or reduce the liability on any of its shares in respect of the share capital not paid-up; or
(b) either with or without extinguishing or reducing liability on any of its shares,--
(i) cancel any paid-up share capital which is lost or is unrepresented by available assets; or
(ii) pay off any paid-up share capital which is in excess of the wants of the company, alter its memorandum by reducing the amount of its share capital and of its shares accordingly:
Provided that no such reduction shall be made if the company is in arrears in the repayment of any deposits accepted by it, either before or after the commencement of this Act, or the interest payable thereon."
20. The present position of law, while dealing with provisions of Section 66 is that if none of the shareholders are objecting for the proposed reduction, then after considering the merits of the case as also connected facts and circumstances such petition generally deserves to be admitted. Some of the case laws are discussed below:
i) In the case of Elpro International Limited (Company Petition No. 288 of 2007) order dated 22.06.2007 reported in (2009) 149 Comp Cas 646 (Bom), Hon'ble Bombay High Court has expressed that the question of reduction of share capital is the matter of domestic concern. Further observed that decision for reduction is based on commercial consideration undertaken by the businessmen who are in the best position to know of the necessities and interest of the company concerned, in the absence of serious allegations as regards the bonafides of the proposed scheme, the courts are of the view that no interference in such decisions is required. It has also been observed that considering the commercial aspect of the decision it is not permissible for the court to come to the conclusion that the exit opportunity offered is inequitable and unjust.
ii) Likewise, in the case of Reckitt Benckiser (India) Limited (Company Petition No. 206 of 2004) Order dated 31.05.2005 reported in after due consideration of the pre and post reduction, admittedly selective one, it was held that if majority by a special resolution decides to reduce share capital of company, it has also right to decide as to how this reduction should be carried into effect.
iii) It is further observed that while reducing the share capital, company can decide to extinguish some of its shares without dealing in the same manner as with all other shares of the same class. The company limited by shares is permitted to reduce the share capital in any manner; thereby a selective reduction is permissible within the framework of law. On the question of valuation as well, an observation was that valuation of shares is a technical matter, which requires considerable skill and experience. If the stakeholders are satisfied with the value, can approve the transaction of reduction of share capital which should not deem to be inequitable or unfair transaction.
iv) In the case of Precious Energy Limited vs. Regional Director in Company Appeal (AT) No. 17/2021 passed by Hon'ble NCLAT wherein it is held that "It is seen from the record that the reduction of the Share Capital was approved by the Shareholders of the appellant Company unanimously by way of special resolution with the objective of reducing the overall weighted average cost of Capital and improving the earning per share. In Reckitt Benckiser (India) Limited (Supra), the Hon'ble Delhi High Court has upheld the view that "the domestic concern i.e., it is the decision of the majority which prevails. If majority by special reduction decides to reduce the share capital of the Company, which also has the right to decide as to how this reduction should be carried into effect....". In the instant case, admittedly, the reduction of this Share capital was approved unanimously by the Shareholders by way of a special resolution."
"It is seen from the record that the company has complied with all the statutory requirements as per the directions of the Tribunal and has also filed necessary affidavits to that effect. It is also pertinent to mention that none of the Creditors objected to the reduction of the capital. Section 66(1)(b) of the Act enables a Company to reduce its share capital in any manner' provided it is approved by the majority of Shareholders through a special resolution."
v) Further, in the matter of Economy Hotels India Services Private Limited vs. Registrar of Companies in Company Appeal (AT) No. 97 of 2020 passed by Hon'ble NCLAT, it was observed that "Be it noted, that 'Reduction of Capital' is a 'Domestic Affair' of a particular Company in which, ordinarily, a Tribunal will not interfere because of the reason that it is a 'majority decision' which prevails...'.
21. In the circumstances, it is hereby ordered to confirm the reduction of share capital of the Petitioner Company by approving the Minutes of EGM dated 10.06.2020 wherein the members of the Petitioner Company resolved to reduce issued, subscribed and paid-up capital of the company from Rs. 50,94,52,500/- (Rupees Fifty Crores Ninety-Four Lakhs Fifty Two Thousand and Five Hundred only) divided into 5,09,45,250 (Five Crore Nine Lakh Forty Five Thousand and Two Fifty only) equity shares of Rs. 10/- (Rupees Ten) each to Rs. 94,52,500/- (Rupees Ninety Four Lakh Fifty Two Thousand Five Hundred only) divided into 9,45,250 equity shares of Rs. 10/- each by way of paying off, cancelling and extinguishing 5,00,00,000 equity shares of Rs. 10/- held by the holder of the equity shares of the Company namely Celestica (Netherlands) BV (The Shareholder).
22. In terms of the above, the necessary alteration shall be made in the Memorandum of Association by the Petitioner Company for reduction of the paid up share capital. The copy of the altered Memorandum of Association and the Minutes approved along with the order shall be delivered to the ROC by filing the e-Form INC, within 30 days of the receipt of the copy of the order.
