Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the principle of merger does not apply when a review petition is dismissed, and the aggrieved party must challenge the main order rather than the dismissal of the review petition. The Court distinguished its previous ruling in Eastern Coalfields Limited v. Dugal Kumar, asserting that the dismissal of a review does not create a merged order. The Court reaffirmed this position by referencing Manohar S/o Shankar Nale and DSR Steel (Private) Limited, establishing that the original order remains intact unless explicitly set aside.
