Birla Corporation Limited & Ors.), both filed by five promoter shareholders.
The December orders had directed that voting results for Resolution No. 5 regarding the amended Articles of Association be published, while stipulating that the appeal court must dispose of miscellaneous appeals within one month before the amended articles take effect.
