Apss Limited winding-up petition dismissed

Unit 1, 1 Arden Court, Arden Road, Alcester, B49 6HN

The most recent insolvency notice for Apss Limited is a Dismissal of winding up petition, published 25 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by HM Revenue & Customs on 06 May 2026. The case is before the High Court of Justice (Chancery Division) (case CR-2026-003521 of 2026). The petition was listed to be heard on 23 September 2026 — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.

HMRC is the petitioning creditor, so the debt behind the petition is unpaid tax — most often VAT, PAYE or corporation tax — rather than a trade debt. HMRC petitions usually follow a long run of missed payments and ignored demands.

Owed money by Apss Limited?

A bad debt this size rarely stops with the company that failed. If you're a supplier or creditor left short, it's worth knowing where you rank — and checking what the shortfall does to your own cashflow.

Is your own business showing the same warning signs?

Falling margins, stretched creditors, overdue filings and HMRC arrears usually appear months before a Gazette notice. Directors who act at that stage keep far more options open, from an informal turnaround to a CVA or restructuring plan.
