Eka Life Limited vs Amarpal
- CitationComp. App. (AT) (Ins) No. 823 of 2023
Ratio decidendi
The rule this decision rests on
A recall application that in substance seeks a review of an earlier order is not maintainable before the Tribunal, because a tribunal has no jurisdiction to review its own judgments; an order passed after hearing the parties can be recalled only on the limited grounds recognised by the law, and mere grounds asserting incorrect findings do not suffice to justify recall.

ORDER
(Hybrid Mode)
07.04.2025: I.A. No. 581 of 2025
This is an application praying for recall of the order dated 08.01.2025
passed by this Tribunal in IA No. 7159 of 2024 in CA (AT) (Ins) No. 823 of
2023. The prayer made in the application is to the following effect:-
"It is therefore most respectfully prayed that the Hon'ble Court may be pleased to:
(a) Allow the present application;
(b) Recall the order dated 08.01.2025 passed in I.A. No. 7159 of 2024 in Company Appeal (AT)(Insolvency) No. 823 of 2023;
(c) Pass any other or further order(s) as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case and in the interest of justice.
The order dated 08.01.2025 was passed after hearing the Ld. Counsel
for the applicant as well as the other parties to the application. Shri Jay
Savla, Ld. Sr. Counsel appearing for the appellant in support of the
application contend that there are certain incorrect findings in the order
which need to be corrected. He further submits that order was passed by this
Tribunal with respect to replacement of the Appellant with regard to which
appellant has no grievance. Ld. Counsel for the respondent submits that
against the order impugned Civil Appeal Diary No. 6946 of 2025 was filed by
appellant which was withdrawn on 01.04.2025.
2. The jurisdiction to recall the judgment are too limited as has been laid
down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in 2024 SCC OnLine SC 122 Greater
Noida Industrial Development Authority v. Prabhjit Singh Soni & Anr.
The order dated 08.01.2025 was passed by this Tribunal after hearing the
appellant and other parties. We are of the view that the present application is
filed as an application for recall which in substance in application seeking
review of the judgment. We do not have any jurisdiction to review our
judgments and the grounds which have been made in the application are not
sufficient to recall the order which was passed after hearing the appellant. We
thus are of the view that no relief can be granted in the application, the order
cannot be recalled hence the application is rejected.

should not be influenced by Regulatory Authority who are considering
complaints against the Applicant.
