Application and certificate to contain details of debts and securities. Extension and amendment of the certificate—The debts and securities in respect of which a certificate is applied for must be detailed at length in the application and also in the certificate and the certificate must be limited in terms to the debts and securities specified in the application and also in the certificate—[Section 372, sub-section (1), clause (f) and Section 374]. At the same time, the Court is empowered (by Section 376) to extend the certificate, on the application of the holder thereof to any debt or security not originally specified therein, and otherwise to amend the certificate (Section 378).
