Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed whether the benefits of Section 14 of the Indian Limitation Act, 1906 can be applied to a suit filed under Order 21 Rule 103 CPC. The Court held that the plaintiff-appellant was not entitled to exclude the time spent on a civil revision petition, as it was deemed ill-advised and not prosecuted in good faith. Consequently, the High Court's dismissal of the suit on the grounds of limitation was upheld.
