Directors liability of pvt co.


This query is : Resolved 

20 October 2012 According to Sec 179 if a pvt co is unable to pay its dues of IT, then its directors shall be liable to pay all the dues, then whether demand notice u/s 156 is required to be issued to director??
Also if he is not paid this dues within prescribed time limit then whether he will be treated as "Assesee in default" u/s 220??
Please suggest with any Case law.
Thanks

20 October 2012 1) No . Notice u/s 226(3) is enough.

2) Yes. Such a Director is an assessee in default vide section 226 (3)(x).

3) Case law. S. Hardip Singh Sandhu Vs. TRO 166 ITR 749 (P&H).

20 October 2012 Thank you sir.
