Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's order directing the appellant to deposit the awarded amount of Rs.34,90,000/- before restoring the appeal was premature, as the restoration application had not yet been decided. The Court emphasized that the High Court should first address the merits of the restoration application before imposing any conditions. Consequently, the impugned order was set aside, and the High Court was instructed to consider the restoration application appropriately.
