Case Overview
- Petition for Special Leave to Appeal (C) No. 26121/2026 filed by Interjewel Private Limited (petitioner) against Employees State Insurance Corporation & others (respondents).
- The petition arises from an impugned final judgment and order dated 20-07-2026 passed by the High Court of Judicature at Bombay in WPL No. 22137/2026.
- Interjewel contended that the High Court’s interlocutory order, which directed the Registry to place the order before the ESIC Court where the appeal is pending, was contrary to various Supreme Court judgments.
- Senior counsel Mr. C.U. Singh argued that the High Court had not considered relevant Supreme Court precedents and that the legal proposition was erroneous.
- The Supreme Court observed that the impugned order is interlocutory and scheduled the matter for an urgent supplementary hearing on 05-08-2026.
- The Court indicated that the petitioner could approach the High Court with an appropriate application for reconsideration in light of the cited judgments.
Final Outcome
- The Supreme Court disposed of the Special Leave Petition No. 26121/2026.
- All pending applications related to the petition were also disposed of.
- No relief or direction was granted to the petitioner; the matter is to be taken up before the High Court on the next date.
