Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court ruled that under Section 34 of the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002, civil courts lack jurisdiction to entertain suits challenging actions taken under the Act. The Court held that the appropriate remedy for aggrieved parties is to file an appeal under Section 17 of the DRT Act, thereby affirming the dismissal of the civil suit filed by the respondents. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the exclusivity of the DRT's jurisdiction in such matters.
