The appellant / Kerala Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (KINFRA) has filed this company appeal under Section 483 of the COMPANIES ACT , 1956 being aggrieved by the interim order dated 19.06.2019 passed on I.A.

A statutory body retains no right to resume possession of leased land post-winding up without permission from the Company Court, despite lease cancellation being legally permissible.
Directors of a company can initiate legal proceedings without a formal Board resolution if authorized by the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Tenancy rights are not assets of a company in liquidation, and the official liquidator must substantiate the need for premises to retain possession under Section 446 of the Companies Act.

Court clarified that post-liquidation, property possession must be secured legally; unauthorized dispossession is not permitted, aligning with principles of due process.
