Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined whether SICOM Limited qualifies as a State Financial Corporation under the State Financial Corporations Act, 1951. The Court held that SICOM, being wholly owned by the Maharashtra Government and established for industrial development, falls within the definition of a State Financial Corporation. Consequently, the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's writ petition to quash the auction of mortgaged properties was upheld, affirming the legality of SICOM's actions under the Act.
