As per Section 529A & 530 of the companies act.
Their are two types of creditors: -
1. Preferential creditors.
2. Overriding Preferential creditors.
Preferential creditors are those who has given secured loans to the company. (Refer section for further details).
Overriding Preferential creditors means the dues of company towards its employees towards bonus, PF, ESI or siimilar nature of payments.( Refer section for further details).
Hence as the names itself says, overriding preferential creditors will have the first charge on the assets of the company.
