Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's dismissal of Writ Petition No. 173 of 2014, which sought a direction for the processing of a One-Time Settlement application. The Court held that the High Court's reasoning, which relied on the pendency of other writ petitions filed by the Bank and the auction purchaser, was incorrect. The Court restored the writ petition for fresh consideration after the resolution of the pending writ petitions, emphasizing the need for a fair hearing on the merits of the case.
