Which of the following actions can be taken by a Registrar under section 4 (5) of the Companies Act, 2013?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Under section 4(5) of the Companies Act, 2013, where a name was obtained on wrong or incorrect information, the Registrar may, after hearing the company, direct it to change its name within three months after passing an ordinary resolution, "Take action for striking off the name of the Company from the register of companies", or make a petition for winding up. A direction to change the name within six months and a winding-up order made on his own accord are not among these powers.
