Case Overview

  • Petitioner: Employment State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) filed Special Leave Petition (C) Diary No. 6492 of 2017 against Respondents: MS Hotel Mass Pvt Ltd and another.
  • The Special Leave Petition was originally dismissed by peremptory order on 18-09-2017 for non‑removal of defects.
  • On 17-09-2026, ESIC filed Interlocutory Application No. 179495/2026 seeking restoration of the dismissed petition and Interlocutory Application No. 179499/2026 seeking condonation of a delay of 3,130 days in filing the restoration application.
  • Counsel for the petitioner appeared before Hon’ble Mr. Justice Sandeep Mehta (in chamber); no counsel appeared for the respondents.

Final Outcome

  • The Court found the reasons for condonation of delay unacceptable and dismissed both IA No. 179499/2026 (condonation) and IA No. 179495/2026 (restoration).
  • Consequently, the miscellaneous application was also dismissed, leaving the original Special Leave Petition dismissed.
