Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 (19 of 1952) Section 11(2) - Povident Fund Commissioner who would have first charge

Download / Print

In that case, the issue was whether the Bank would have first charge over the assets of a company to which it had issued a loan, or whether it would be the Provident Fund Commissioner who would have first charge over such assets, to pay off the dues of the company to its employees, under the Act of 1952.

After considering the law on the subject, including the judgments in Maharashtra State Co-operative Bank (supra), and another judgment also involving the same bank (Maharashtra State Co-operative Bank v. Kannad Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Limited and others (2014) 14 SCC 456), it was held that the first charge created under the Act of 1952 would prevail over the sarfaesi Act, 2002.
