Judgment Text
1. Mr. Deepak Diwan, a Director of the Company of M/s. Doypack Systems Pvt. Ltd. assisted by Shri K. S. Mehta, Chartered Accountant of S. S. Kothari & Company on behalf of M/s. Doypack Systems Pvt. Ltd. draws our attention to certain developments in the matter in which we have delivered the judgment on February 12, 1988 (Doypack Systems (P) Ltd. v. Union of India, (1988) 2 SCC 299).

Decisions taken at that Meeting would be implemented within the purview of the companies law.
