Dear Sushil Wattal,
There is no time limit while the case is still pending. Therefore, application to condone delay not required. Prepare your defence in accordance to O.IX.R.7 CPC.

Time limit is 30 days. Beyond this time one has to file petition for condonation of delay.

Dear Devajyoti Barman & Rajendra K Goyal,
30 days' time limit is to file a petition to set-aside the ex-parte decree. The present question pertains to filing of petition to set-aside an ex-parte order (ex-parte proceedings), for which, there is no time limit.
