Authority: Supreme Court Special Lok Adalat
Order Date: 23‑08‑2026
Case Overview
- Petition for Special Leave to Appeal (C) No. 3273/2026 was filed by Reliance General Insurance Company Limited against Sandeep Kumar Shandilya & Ors.
- The petition sought relief following a High Court order (IA No. 22433/2026) requiring the petitioner to deposit a sum; the petitioner had already complied with that order.
- Counsel for the petitioner, Ms. Sakshi Mittal, informed the Court that the parties had negotiated an out‑of‑court settlement whereby Reliance would pay an additional Rs 33 lakhs over and above the amount already deposited.
- Both parties agreed to the settlement, and the petitioner chose not to pursue the relief sought in the Special Leave Petition.
Final Outcome
- The Special Lok Adalat disposed of the petition as withdrawn, thereby concluding the dispute without further judicial intervention.
