Mulla on the Law of Insolvency in India is an authoritative reference. It is in the form of the Tagore Law Lectures delivered by Mulla at the Calcutta University in 1929. Thus, it is neither a mere digest nor a traditional commentary. It covers the law of insolvency of individuals and partnership firms. The two main Acts which form the basis of this unusual commentary are:

The Presidency-towns Insolvency Act, 1909 The Provincial Insolvency Act, 1920
It includes a comparative analysis of the important provisions of the above-mentioned Acts. In this book, unique paragraph numbers given in the text have been connected with the respective provisions of the two insolvency statutes provided as appendices.
This book has remained a legal classic since its first publication in 1930. The current edition has been thoroughly revised and updated with the latest case law. It is an ideal reference for practicing advocates, judges, scholars and financial consultants.
