Revival & Restructuring of Sick Companies
 
 
Why Revival of Sick Companies is important?
It is necessary to make all attempts to revive the company rather than close it. Revival should be undertaken as winding up of a company would result in:
  • Closing down of unit which provided some goods or services
  • It would throw out of employment numerous persons resulting in grave hardship
  • Loss of revenue to the state
  • Scarcity of goods and diminishing employment opportunities
Major causes of sickness of industrial companies
  • Inability of management to
    • keep a constant vigil over competitive forces
    • focus on continued viability of the industrial unit
    • introduce dynamic changes to suit the development taking place in the industry
  • Mismanagement by directors
  • Diversion and misapplication of funds
  • Reckless investments in other businesses
  • Disproportionate investments
  • Lack of serious efforts to combat sickness at the initial stage and to take efforts to revive it
