Companies registered under the Act may put an end to their affairs by winding up their business. This is carried out by realisation of the assets and applying the proceeds in payment of its debts and liabilities and if there is any balance left after meeting the liabilities, the same is paid back to the members in proportion to the contribution made by them to the capital of the company.
Section 425 provides that a company may be wound up in the following ways:— (a) by the Court/Tribunal, or; (b) by the members voluntarily.
So Bank can go only in above mentioned way to wind up of the company.
