National Company Law Tribunal4 January 2024

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

The Tribunal has power under Rule 154 of the NCLT Rules, 2016, read with section 60(5) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016, to rectify its own order where a clerical or typographical error has crept into it, and may do so on an application filed for that purpose. A figure in an order which, on comparison with the record and the compliance documents, is shown to be a typographical error may be corrected by a rectification order that substitutes the correct figure, the rectified order being read along with the original order and the remainder of the original order being left unaltered.
