How does background check actually work? I mean if a company has shut down, for example, how would the next company know whom to call to check?

If it was a full time position anytime in last 5 years reveal it. If you r joining a startup they may not care to do an exhaustive check - however If the new firm is an established one, they can ask for access to your 26AS (to verify you were not moonlighting in your prev jobs).
