The High Court of Justice made a winding-up order against MT Solutions Scot Ltd on 20 May 2026, placing the Manchester-registered business services company into compulsory liquidation under case number 002752 of 2026. Compulsory liquidation is court-imposed and distinct from a voluntary process. The company had been incorporated on 4 March 2024, meaning it survived for just over 14 months before the court ordered its closure.
A winding-up order ends a company's existence as a trading entity and puts its assets in the hands of a liquidator, who realises them and distributes the proceeds to creditors.
The liquidator
T Tipper of the Official Receiver's office has been appointed liquidator, taking office on 20 May 2026, the same date as the order. The Official Receiver is a civil servant of the Insolvency Service who automatically assumes the role of liquidator when a winding-up order is made. Tipper's office is based in Birmingham and can be contacted through the North West Official Receiver team at NorthWest.OR@insolvency.gov.uk.
The petition that led to the order was filed on 8 April 2026, roughly six weeks before the court made the order.
The company
MT Solutions Scot Ltd was registered at Reedham House, King Street West, Manchester, M3 2PN. Its SIC code, the standard industrial classification used by Companies House, places it in the category of other business support service activities not elsewhere classified, a broad designation covering a range of administrative and operational services.
The company had no prior trading names and no registered charges against its assets at the time of the order.
The directors
Four individuals held directorships at various points during the company's short life. William Thomas Sharp, a Scotland-based director appointed on 5 November 2025, was the sole director in office at the time of the winding-up order. Stephen Mark McLaughlan, also based in Scotland, served from incorporation on 4 March 2024 until his resignation on 21 January 2025. Fraser Steele, based in England, held the role from 1 September 2024 until 24 April 2025. Jayeshkumar Parmar, resident in India, was a director from 24 April 2025 until 5 November 2025.
Creditors and others with an interest in the estate should contact the Official Receiver's North West team using the details published in the London Gazette notice.

Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Mt Solutions Scot Limited?
Customers rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Mt Solutions Scot Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the winding-up order is made. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions. The Official Receiver also has a statutory duty to investigate director conduct and report under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
