Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the rights of a person declared a wilful defaulter under RBI Circulars to be represented by a lawyer of their choice during the declaration process. The court emphasized the importance of due process and the right to legal representation, ultimately ruling that such representation is indeed permissible. This decision reinforces the principles of natural justice in financial regulatory matters.
