  Procedure where claim not admitted






   [[416H. Procedure where claim not admitted---(1) If the company
 contends that a person is not entitled to be entered on the list of
 creditors in respect of any debt or claim, whether admitted or not, or
 if any [debt or claim], the particulars of which are so sent in, is not
 admitted by the company at its full amount, then and in every such case,
 unless the company is willing to appropriate in such manner as the Court
 directs the full amount of the debt or claim, the company shall, if the
 Court thinks fit so to direct, send to the creditor a notice that the
 creditor is required to come in and establish the creditor's title to be
 entered on the list or, as the case may be, to come in and prove the
 debt or claim, or such part thereof, as is not admitted by the company,
 by a day to be therein named, being not less than 4 clear days after the
 notice, and being the time appointed by the Court for adjudicating upon
 those titles, debts, and claims.

   (2) The notice under subclause (1) shall be sent in the manner
 mentioned in rule 416E, and may be in form 32C, with such variations as
 the circumstances of the case may require.
