Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that objections to a sale conducted by court-appointed receivers are maintainable under Section 151 CPC, emphasizing the court's inherent powers to ensure transparency and accountability in such sales. The Court affirmed that the interests of justice are paramount in determining the maintainability of such applications, and the trial court must consider any objections raised. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed without costs, affirming the High Court's remand for further examination of the objections.
