Winding up petition whether maintainable when arbitration petition is pending before the Arbitrator?

No. If the arbitrator is taking up the issue then the petition for winding up is not maintainable. It is better to withdraw the petition pending with the arbitrator if the petition for the winding up is to be moved.

In my view winding up petition is maintainable even arbitration petition is pending before the arbitrator.Both are different petitions.

Dear Mr. Rajesh,
yes the winding up petition shall be very much maintainable even if some arbitration proceedings are going on simultaneously. winding up petition is not a dispute and does not come under the purview of arbitration act.
