M/S. EASTERN EQUIPMENT & SALES LTD. vs ING.YASH KUMAR KHANNA

The Supreme Court set aside the orders of the High Court and the Appellate Court rejecting the application for additional evidence under Order 41 Rule 27 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court held that the Appellate Court should have considered the application along with the pending appeal, directing it to decide both on merits within three months. The decision referenced the precedent in Jaipur Development Authority vs. Kailashwati Devi, 1997 (7) SCC 297, but did not address the merits of the application itself.
