Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the dismissal of objections under Order 21 Rule 90 CPC related to an auction sale confirmed on 5/6/1993. The Court held that the appellant's failure to appear on multiple scheduled dates resulted in the dismissal of their objections, and the subsequent appeal was barred by limitation under the Limitation Act. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, emphasizing that no sufficient grounds were shown for condoning the delay, thus upholding the confirmation of the sale in favor of the highest bidder, M/s. Jagan Singh and Company.
