In case of winding up of a company, the official liquidator attached to the High Court may represent the company in all the pending litigation and he may prosecute the litigation.
If the company against whom proceedings under N. I. Act are pending, is also ordered to be wound up, the liability of the diretors or officers incharge of the accused company does not cease and they shall remain liable for the consequences of the offence committed by them.
