Would experience count for company which no longer exists ?

I am concerned by following news piece i read on a website

"CANADA YOUR PERMANENT RESIDENCY APPLICATION CAN BE REJECTED IF THE EMPLOYER YOU HAVE WORKED FOR CANNOT NOT BE FOUND BY SEARCHING IN GOOGLE OR IF SEARCHED NOT FULL INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE AS RECENTLY FEDERAL COURT REJECTED APPEAL OF ONE APPLICANT WHO APPLIED FOR CORPORATE SALES MANAGER (NOC 0601)SHOWING HAVING WORKED WITH ONE COMPANY FOR 1952 HOURS EMPLOYING 308 EMPLOYERS BUT WEBSITE COULD NOT BE FOUND"

In my EE Profile I am claiming 2 years of Experience of a Company in UK which was shut down last year due to lack of funds, I do have all the necessary documents (Contract letter, experience letter, pay slips etc..) but i am still concerned as the case stated above also provided all the necessary documents and still got rejected.

For what it's worth, we were able to get by with experience from a company that didn't exist any more. We had a description of the duties and responsibilities, supporting documentation, and proof the company was no longer operating.

Same case applies to me. One of my previous company has shut down. However i have submitted all the relevant docs along with responsibilities letter from one of my colleague.

Anyone who has rejected due to this can bring some light here. But i am worried too.

Source please?

IRCC does not refuse your application just because your organization's details don't pop up on a search engine.

Don't worry, go ahead if you have the documents.
