23 December 2011 If the Charge is required to be registered by filing Form 8 or 10 then and same has been filed then it is deemed notice to the Public and company is no more require to make known to the charge holder.
But the charge is completely valid against both the charge holders but is invalid against Liquidator and other creditors. If charge is registered then charge holder gets priority in repayment of amount secured as compared to charge which is not registered. But it is noted here that this rule is apllied only in the cases where charge is required to be registered under section 125 (4).
The status of charge is valid against the company.
