06 December 2011 Section 257 is not applicable to private companies. They will be governed by the provisions in their articles.

06 December 2011 As you know section 257 is not applicable to pvt companies, company is not bound to respond to the request of the shareholder. Company can out rightly reject his request.

In your case rejecting the request would not be equal to damaging the minority right. On the basis of minority interest you can not compel a company to do anything you want.
