Ajay G. Podar Vs. Official Liquidator Of J.S.&W.M
Section 458A is not applicable to misfeasance proceedings instituted by the O.L. as such proceedings are not in the name and on behalf of a company which is being wound up by the Court. In this connection, reliance is placed on Section 458A which prescribes the mode of computation of the period of limitation for any su...

On reading the provisions of Section 458A and Section 543(2) of the Limitation Act, we find that there is a clear dichotomy between the concept of the "period of limitation" on one hand and the concept of "computation of that period". Section 543(2) limits the time after which misfeasance or breach of trust pro...

mere necessity of giving a notice to a licensee requiring him to vacate the licensed premises would not indicate that the transaction was a lease. Indeed, S. 62 (c) of the Indian Easements Act, 1882 itself provides that a licence is deemed to be revoked where it has been either granted for a limited period, or acquired...
