RAMESH CHAND vs GAZIABAD DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's failure to decide an application for acceptance of additional evidence under Order 41, Rule 27 of the Code of Civil Procedure during the disposal of a second appeal was improper. The Court emphasized that the High Court must address such applications at the time of appeal resolution. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment and remitted the case for a fresh decision on the second appeal along with the additional evidence application, mandating a resolution within two months.
