(Hybrid Mode)

19.08.2025 : Heard counsel for the appellant as well as counsel for the

RP.

2. This appeal has been filed against an order dated 15.07.2025 passed in

RA-29(ND)/2025. Adjudicating authority by the impugned order has allowed

the RA and restored the I.A. No.685/2025 but subject to payment of cost of

Rs.1 lakh to be deposited in the Prime Minister's Relief Fund.

3. Learned counsel for the appellant has raised only one submission that

the cost imposed be reduced. He submits that the application was listed for

the first time which was dismissed for non-prosecution.

4. Be that as it may, the adjudicating authority having already allowed the

restoration and restored the I.A.685/2025, no further observations are

required. However, looking into the facts of the present case, we are of the

view that cost imposed be reduced to Rs.25,000/-.

Appeal disposed of accordingly.
