When a Company fails to file intimation of Charge Satisfaction u/s 138.

In this regard section 139 states that the ROC has the power to make entries of satisfaction and release in absence of intimation from a Company.

Would section 141 still be applicable.

And what would be the procedure.

Please Explain?
