File application under order 9 rule 9 of cpc. The time limit is 30 days. So you have file that with section 5 of the Limitation Act application.
Sir it has already been replied regarding your query "RESTORATION Of Suit" by learned friends - Again there are the citations on this point.
For lapse on the part of appellant’s counsel, no evidence could be adduced in support of pleading placed by appellant- Party can’t be made to suffer on account of negligence or mistake of some one who was handling affairs on behalf of party- UAD-2008-UTT-132.
Rejection of restoration on ground of non appearance of counsel- Not proper- it is well settled that due to negligence committed by counsel, party could not be penalized, where restoration filed within prescribed period- UTT-UAD-2009(1)-191.
Exparte order- due to absence of lawyer because of strike- court could set aside- S.C.D.-2001(2)- S.C.-141.

I agree with Mr. Barman. An application under Order 9 is to be filed for the restoration of the suit and as the time of 30 days has lapsed an application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act for condonation of delay is also required to be filed otherwise the Application for restoration will be dismissed as being time barred.
