In order to give an opportunity to the defunct companies, for getting their names strike off from the Register of Companies, the Ministry had launched a Scheme namely, "Easy Exit Scheme, 2010" under Section 560 of the Companies Act, 1956 during May-Aug, 2010. A large number of companies availed this scheme. However, on huge demands from corporate sector, the Ministry has decided to re-launch the Scheme as, "Easy Exit Scheme, 2011" under Section 560 of the Companies Act, 1956.
Details of the scheme are given in the General Circular No. 6 /2010.
