Bhimsen Apat vs Kalinga Enterprises Private Limited ...

National Company Law Appellate Tribunal12 December 2023Ashok Bhushan

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The Tribunal has no power to review its own judgment, so an application that in substance seeks review of a final judgment under the guise of recall is not maintainable and must be rejected.

Written by Miss Lucy from the judgment below, not taken from a headnote.

ORDER

(Hybrid Mode)

12.12.2023: I.A. No. 5834 of 2023:- Heard Learned Counsel for the

appellant. This is an application praying for recall of the Judgment passed by

this Tribunal dated 19.10.2023 by which appeal was disposed of.

2. Learned Counsel for the Applicant by this recall application submits that

the appellant did not disclose to the court that notice was issued by the

Registry of the Tribunal which was served on the Corporate Debtor. He submits

that even the applicant was not aware of the said fact and applicant came to

know about it only after the Judgment was passed by this Tribunal on

19.10.2023.

3. Learned Counsel for the Applicant submits that the non-disclosure thus

amounts to misleading by the appellant in the appeal.

4. The order was passed by this Tribunal after hearing both the parties

including Learned Counsel for the Corporate Debtor. -2-

5. Whatever submissions were made by the counsel for the parties were

considered and this Tribunal decided the appeal after hearing the parties. This

application is nothing but review in disguise of recall of the judgment which is

not permissible since this Tribunal does not have jurisdiction to review its own

judgment.

6. The application is thus rejected.
