Del HC explains"},"content":{"rendered":"

Delhi High Court: <\/strong>Amit Bansal, J., expressed that an LLP or any other business entity can carry out business in different parts of the country, but that would not mean that a suit with regard to disputes between the partners, could be filed in any place where the business of the firm\/LLP is carried out.<\/p>\n

A petition was filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India which impugned the order passed by the District Judge whereby the application was filed on behalf of the petitioners\/defendants under Order VII Rule 10 and 11(d) of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 had been dismissed.<\/p>\n

The plaint from which instant petition arose was filed by the respondent\/plaintiff, being one of the partners of the petitioner 3\/defendant 3 which was a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) and against the respondents 1 and 2\/defendants 1 and 2 who were the remaining partners of the said LLP.<\/p>\n

Petitioners\/Defendants counsel submitted that the registered office of the LLP was in Hyderabad, hence the Courts in Delhi did not have any jurisdiction.<\/p>\n

Respondent\/Plaintiff submitted that the business of the LLP was duly being carried out in Delhi through the respondent\/plaintiff and therefore, the cause of action would arise in Delhi. Hence, the Courts in Delhi would be competent to try and entertain the present suit.<\/p>\n

Grievance in the Matter<\/span><\/h4>\n

Respondent\/plaintiff was aggrieved that he had been denied access to the business accounts of the respondent 3\/defendant 3.<\/p>\n

Analysis and Discussion<\/span><\/h4>\n

In the plaint it was nowhere submitted that the business accounts, in respect of which access has been sought were kept in Delhi, in fact, the plaint is conspicuously silent on the aspect of the cause of action for filing of the suit.<\/p>\n

The entire basis of the respondent\/plaintiff for filing the suit in Delhi was on account of the fact that the LLP carried out business in Delhi and that the products of the LLP were regularly sold in Delhi by means of online sales as well as through physical stores such as Nature\u2019s Soul, which is in Delhi.<\/p>\n

High Court opined that the fact that business of the LLP was being carried out in Delhi would not vest the Courts of Delhi with jurisdiction to try and entertain the present suit.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the Bench stated that Section 13 of the LLP Act provides that every LLP shall have a registered office, where all communications and notices may be addressed and shall be received. In terms of Section 34(1) of the LLP Act, the books of account in respect of an LLP shall be maintained at the registered office.<\/p>\n

Further, in view of the facts and circumstances of the case, Court decided that the jurisdiction to entertain the present suit shall vest with the Courts in Hyderabad.<\/p>\n

Since there was no principal or subordinate office of the LLP in Delhi and neither the books of accounts were kept in Delhi, therefore, there was no cause of action in respect of the present suit which was arising within the territorial limits of the Courts in Delhi.<\/p>\n

\n

Parties by agreement cannot give jurisdiction to a Court which otherwise does not have such jurisdiction.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Maintainability in Civil Court<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Bench elaborated that, merely because the definition of the \u201cbody corporate\u201d under Section 2(1)(d) of the LLP Act includes an LLP, it is not automatically implied that the NCLT would be the competent forum for deciding all disputes inter se<\/em> the partners of an LLP. Unlike Section 430 of the Companies Act, 2013, there is no bar on the jurisdiction of the Civil Courts under the provisions of the LLP Act. Therefore, in terms of Section 9 of the CPC, the suit shall be maintainable in a Civil Court.<\/p>\n

Decision<\/span><\/h4>\n
\n

Courts in Delhi lack the territorial jurisdiction to try and entertain the present suit.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In view of the above discussion, the present suit stood allowed. [Aanchal Mittal v. Ankur Shukla, 2022 SCC OnLine Del 633<\/b><\/a>, decided on 25-2-2022]<\/p>\n
