Authority: National Company Law Appellate Tribunal Principal Bench, New Delhi

Order Date: 15th October, 2026

Case Overview

This interlocutory application (IA No.7509/2026) was filed by Panchratna Co-operative Housing Society (Appellant) against Krishna Chamadia & Anr. (Respondents) seeking extension of time for curing defects in their appeal filing. The Appellant had originally e-filed the Memorandum of Appeal on 2nd July, 2026. The NCLAT Registry scrutinized the filing and intimated defects to the Appellant on 17th July, 2026. The Appellant re-filed the appeal on 6th October, 2026, claiming in their application that multiple objections were raised by the Registry and that due to non-availability of some documents, an 88-day delay occurred which they described as unintentional and unavoidable.

Final Outcome

The Registrar noted that despite the Appellant's claim of 88 days delay, the actual delay was 74 days from the date of intimation of defects (17th July, 2026) to the re-filing date (6th October, 2026). The Appellant was required to re-file within seven days from the date of defect intimation. As no one appeared on behalf of the Appellant during the proceedings, the case was directed to be listed before the Hon'ble Bench under the heading 'for admission with defect (fresh case)' for appropriate orders regarding the delay condonation.
