Company Liquidation Process in Nepal: Types, Laws, and Procedures Explained

Company Liquidation Process in Nepal: Types, Laws, and Procedures Explained

Company liquidation in Nepal is a formal legal process of closing a company and distributing its assets after settling all liabilities. Governed by the Companies Act, 2063 (2006), and the Insolvency Act, 2063 (2006), liquidation can be voluntary—initiated by shareholders, or compulsory—ordered by the court due to insolvency, misconduct, or non-compliance. Voluntary liquidation can be either members’ or creditors’ based, depending on solvency status. The court-ordered liquidation is executed when the company fails to settle debts or operates unlawfully. A licensed liquidator oversees the liquidation process, handling asset sales, debt settlements, legal claims, and final deregistration of the company. Liquidation ensures the company closes transparently and legally, safeguarding the rights of creditors, shareholders, and the public. This comprehensive guide details types, processes, conditions, and the legal framework applicable to liquidation in Nepal. Understand your rights and responsibilities during company closure.

Religious Crime in Nepal: Laws, Offenses, and Legal Safeguards Explained

Religious Crime in Nepal: Laws, Offenses, and Legal Safeguards Explained

Nepal, a nation known for its religious tolerance, faces emerging challenges with religiously motivated crimes. The Muluki Civil Code, 2074 (Part 2, Chapter 10, Sections 155–159), outlines legal safeguards against religious offenses, including hate speech, forced conversions, vandalism of sacred sites, and obstruction of traditional rituals. Offenders can face penalties such as fines, imprisonment, and in the case of foreign nationals, deportation. The legal framework ensures respect for all religious communities while penalizing acts that threaten social harmony. Alpine Law Associates provides comprehensive legal services in religious offense cases, including consultation, complaint filing, court representation, mediation, and protection of religious freedoms. Addressing these sensitive issues requires both legal enforcement and active promotion of mutual respect among different faiths. This article offers a detailed overview of the laws, penalties, and available legal assistance to safeguard Nepal’s cultural pluralism and religious harmony.
