Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court referred to the interpretation of 'jurisdiction' under Section 9A of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, as amended by the Maharashtra Amendment Act, 1977. The Court held that the term 'jurisdiction' encompasses the issue of limitation, thereby overruling the contrary view in Kamalakar Eknath Salunkhe v. Baburav Vishnu Javalkar, which was deemed per incuriam. The Court emphasized the need for clarity in jurisdictional matters, particularly in relation to interim relief applications.
