BALDEV RAJ TANEJA vs BIMAL KUMAR KEJRIWAL (HUF) & ORS.

The Supreme Court dismissed the Special Leave Petition (SLP) filed by the complainant against the High Court's revisional order, which had directed further inquiry into the complaint under Section 420 IPC while refusing to take cognizance under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. The Court noted that the SLP was delayed by 1233 days and the delay was not satisfactorily explained, leading to the dismissal on grounds of delay. The ruling emphasizes the importance of timely filing in legal proceedings.
