How Liquidation can be done?

Liquidation can be done either voluntarily or under compulsion, as explained below:

  • Voluntary Liquidation or liquidation by agreements is the type where the shareholders themselves decide to cease the company’s operation due to:
    • Diminishing or negligible profits
    • Non-accomplishment of delivery of projects
    • Non- accomplishment of the purpose of company creation
  • Compulsory Liquidation is the liquidation that has been forced upon the company by a court ruling due to neglect or non-fulfillment of obligations undertaken.

 

The main characteristics of liquidation are:

  • Individuals within the company are not affected, however, the company is.
  • An appointed Liquidator takes care of the management of the liquidation, in turn, sparing the directors and other individuals of the company of the stress involved.
  • After a company is liquidated, creditors cannot pursue the directors for payment.
  • Debts that are unsecured are typically written off

All legal cases that are presently facing the company will be halted when the company is liquidated
