Circumstances in which voluntary winding up may be made:
A company may be wound up voluntarily, in case—
(i) where a company is formed for undertaking a fixed object and the articles provide that the company is to be dissolved on the completion of the object, the company may be dissolved voluntarily where an ordinary resolution is passed at a general meeting;
(ii) where the proposal is approved by a special resolution passed at the general meeting of the company.
Publication of the resolution of winding up
Section 485 provides that where a company has passed a resolution for voluntary winding up, notice of the resolution shall be given within 14 days of the passing of the same by advertisement in the Official Gazette and also in some newspaper circulating in the district where the registered office is situated.
Commencement of winding up
In terms of the provisions of section 486 of the Act, a voluntary winding up shall be deemed to commence at the time when the resolution for voluntary winding up is passed by the members.
Company may carry on business activities until the order for winding up is passed
In case of Orkay Industries Ltd. v State of Maharashtra (1999) 32 CLA 94 (Bom), it was held that it could not be said that on the presentation of petition for winding up, the affairs of a company would come to a standstill. Mere presentation of winding up petition would not prevent the company from continuing its business and its directors would not ceased to be directors until an order of winding up is passed by the Court (now Tribunal) or a provisional liquidator had been appointed.

ANNEXURE TO THE NOTICE
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT IN PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 173(2) OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 1956 IN RESPECT TO THE SPECIAL BUSINESS
———————————————————————————————————————————
Item Nos. 1 and 2
The Company was formed for the purpose of dealing in chemicals, drugs, pharmaceuticals, intermediates, dyes, solvents, formulations, laboratory chemicals and reagents. Initially the business of the Company was quite remunerative and earned adequate profits on capital invested. But as the members are aware that the Company is not doing any business activities for the last 2-3 years. The Board of directors of the Company considered the matter and was of the opinion that in view of the non-availability of business prospects, and long-term financial resources it is not financially viable to carry on the business activities. It therefore does not serve any fruitful purpose to maintain the status of the Company. The directors of the Company feel that there is no alternative but to put the Company into voluntary winding up, realise the assets thereof and distribute the proceeds to the members.
The Board made a pragmatic assessment of the affairs of the Company and has reasonable grounds to form the opinion that the Company will be able to pay its debts in full within a period of one year after realising the assets belonging to the Company.
On the basis of the assessment made by your Board of directors, the Board passed a resolution declaring solvency of the Company at a meeting held on the xx.xx.xxxx and that such declaration shall be delivered to the Registrar accompanied by a report of the auditors of the Company, as required under section 488 of the Companies Act, 1956.
Your approval is required for the voluntary winding up of the Company as given in item No. 1.
Your approval is also required for appointing Shri S.L. Chaplot, as liquidator of the Company at a remuneration of Rs. 5,000 in addition to reimbursement of actual out of pocket expenses.
The above said declaration of solvency is available for inspection at the registered office of the Company during business hours on any working day till the date of the meeting.
None of the directors of your Company are interested in the proposed resolution, except to the extent of their share holdings in the Company.
