Power of Commissioner to enquire into disputes as to amount

Where there is any dispute as to the person or persons who are entitled to any amount payable under this Act. (including any dispute as to who are the legal representatives of any deceased claiment to the amount), the Commissioner may, after making such enquiry as he may deem fit, make the payment to such person as appears to him to be best entitled to receive the amount:

Provided that if the Commissioner is unable to determine as to who is the person entitled to the amount and considers that the matters could more appropriately be dealt with by the principal civil court of original jurisdiction within the local limits of whose jurisdiction the registered office of the Company is situated, he may refer such dispute to the said-court, whose decision thereon shall be final;

Provided further that nothing contained herein shall effect the liability of any person, who may receive the whole or any part of the amount allowed under this Act to pay the same to the person lawfully entitled thereto.
