14 February 2013 Dear Sir/Madam,

Kindly let me know whether it is possible to set off the dividend payable to a shareholder by a company against the amount due/receivable from him to the company? Which section permits/prohibits the same?

Regards,

Dividend cannot be used to set off any other claim.....even if the shareholder gives an instruction, it is violative of the company law....
