to answer your query shortly after the enactment of The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 High court ceases to have jurisdiction for adjudicating Winding Up. You can file a corporate insolvency before NCLT as defined us 7/10 of the act ( National Company Law Tribunal) constituted under section 408 of the companies act 2013.

As per new Bankruptcy code if a company fails to pay a sum of Rs 1,00,000/- despite demand raised by the Creditor within 15 days of demand raised by the creditor then a Creditor can move to National Company Law Tribunal for declaring the company Insolvent. Both the act Bankruptcy code as well as Companies Act complement each other.
