HC SEAL ON "RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL" TO BENEFIT PES

has come as a big relief for both companies and private equity funds which invest in these firms.
The court ruled that such arrangements do not violate Section 111A of the Companies Act, which holds that share and debenture of companies must be freely transferable.
