A liquidator of Narmada Metals Ltd believes that some assets are in Country X. India has no reciprocal arrangement with Country X under section 234. Which statement best reflects section 235?
Section 235 allows a letter of request only where the assets lie in a country with which India has made reciprocal arrangements under section 234. Without such an arrangement, the liquidator cannot use this route, even though liquidation proceedings are covered by the section.
- AThe letter of request route in section 235 is available only for assets in a country with which reciprocal arrangements have been made under section 234Correct
- BThe Adjudicating Authority may issue a letter of request to any country regardless of reciprocal arrangements
- CThe letter of request route is available only during the resolution process, not liquidation
- DThe letter of request route applies only to assets of personal guarantors
Explanation
Section 235(1) ties the application to assets situated in a country with which reciprocal arrangements have been made under section 234. It applies to resolution, liquidation or bankruptcy proceedings, so the liquidation and any-country options are wrong. Guarantors are only one covered category.
