74 .         Order confirming reduction

        (1)         The Court, if satisfied that the consent of every creditor of the company who under this Act is entitled to object to the reduction has been obtained or his debt or claim has been discharged or has determined or has been secured, may make an order confirming the reduction on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit.

        (2)         Where the Court makes any such order, it may —

            (a)         if for any special reason it thinks proper so to do, make an order directing that the company shall, during such period, commencing on or at any time after the date of the order, as is specified in the order, add to its name as the last words thereof the words “and reduced”; and

            (b)         make an order requiring the company to publish as the Court directs the reasons for reduction, or such other information in regard thereto as the Court may think expedient, with a view to giving proper information to the public, and, if the Court thinks fit, the causes which led to the reduction.

        (3)         Where a company is ordered to add to its name the words “and reduced”, those words shall, until the expiration of the period specified in the order, be deemed to be part of the name of the company.
