Judgment text

IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION INTERIM APPLICATION NO. 6508 OF 2026 IN FIRST APPEAL (ST) NO. 20546 OF 2026 Ram Rajbhai Shreshtha Applicant Versus New Akash Ganga CHS Ltd. And Ors. Respondents _______ Mr. Eshaan Saroop i/by Mr. Hoshang S. Tafti, Advocates for the Applicant. Ms. Ruju R. Thakkar a/w Poushali Roychoudhary, Advocates for the Respondent No. 1. _______ CORAM: AARTI SATHE, J. th DATE: 20 AUGUST 2026. P. C. 1. We have heard learned counsel for the parties in this Interim Application which is filed praying for condonation of delay in filing the aforesaid appeal. The delay which is sought to be condoned is of 09 days. On the Respondent being served, the Respondent is represented by Ms. Ruju R. Thakkar, learned counsel. There is no written opposition filed to this application. Ms. Ruju R.

Thakkar, although has orally opposed this application vehemently, he would not dispute the well settled position in law in a catena of judgments of the Supreme Court in regard to the principles to be followed on condonation of the delay and more particularly he would not dispute that, in the clear facts and circumstances of the case, as set out in the memo of the Bharati application, the Applicant ought not to suffer or be rendered remediless in pursuing the Appeal. 2. In the aforesaid circumstances, having perused the memo of the application and considering the period of delay not being very gross, in my opinion, the reasons as set out certainly provide for an appropriate justification and a sufficient cause shown by the applicant in regard to the delay in filing the appeal. It is hence in the interest of justice that the delay is condoned. 3. Interim application is disposed of in the above terms. No costs. 4.

The Appeal accordingly be listed for admission, subject to removal of objections, if any, to be removed within six weeks from today. 5. Learned counsel for Respondent undertakes to file Vakalatnama within a period of one week from today. (AARTI SATHE, J. ) Bharati
