Respondent Company to redeem the preference shares after 30.09.2015 which would in turn make such preference shares irredeemable which a Company limited by Shares is not allowed to issue as per Section 55 of the Companies Act, 2013 (Act). (6) It is stated that no attempt was made by the Respondent Company to redeem the NCRPS and accordingly, after the date of redemption, the Applicant requested the Respondent Company to redeem the same through oral and written correspondences, to which the Respondent Company have deliberately not responded to any of these correspondences.

The Respondent Company cannot claim protection of Section 55 of the Act when it has itself not complied with the provisions contained therein.
