(a) a company has failed to commence its business within one year of its
incorporation;

or
(c) a company is not carrying on any business or operation for a period of two
immediately preceding financial years and has not made any application within such
period for obtaining the status of a dormant company under section 455
(2) Without prejudice to the provisions of sub-section (1), a company may, after

members in terms of paid-up share capital, file an application in the prescribed manner to the
