The petitioner has annexed the bills and challans to the petition which show supply of goods to the company. The company has been unable to challenge these documents. There is clear evidence of supply of steel wires of invoice amount Rs.67,52,311.32/-. Payment of Rs.58,77,995.88 /-was made by the Company.
