ACHALDAS DURGAJI OSWAL (D) THRU LRS vs RAMVILAS GANGABISAN HEDA(D) BY LRS.&ORS.

The Supreme Court held that there is no period of limitation for filing an application for preparation of a final decree under Order XXXIV, Rule 8 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court clarified that the rejection of an application for extension of time does not bar the filing of a subsequent application for final decree, as the preliminary decree remains in effect until a final decree is made. The Court upheld the Bombay High Court's decision to allow the revision application, thereby reversing the lower court's dismissal of the application for final decree.
