Why Winding Up Gets Complicated
Winding up is rarely simple once real assets, liabilities, or disputes are involved.
Wrong mode of winding up chosen for the situation
Liquidator not appointed correctly
Creditor claims not settled before closure
Employee dues, including PF and ESI, left unresolved
Elixir Filings assesses your company's actual situation first, so we recommend the winding up mode that genuinely fits.

01
Winding Up of Company
Winding up a company in India formally closes it when there are assets, liabilities, or disputes that a simple strike off cannot address. This can happen voluntarily, through a resolution by members or creditors, or compulsorily, through an order of the National Company Law Tribunal. A liquidator is appointed to settle claims and distribute any remaining assets. Elixir Filings guides you through determining the right mode and managing the process.
