This query is : Resolved
Dear experts
An SA is filed before the DRT with an application for condonation of delay.
DRT dismissed the application for condonation of delay and consequently the SA. This order is challenged before the high court with a prayer to set aside the impugned order along with prayer to set aside the sale conducted by the authority. it is not prayed separately to condone the delay before the High Court. is it a fatal error. if so, whether it is curable by filing a memo or an IA before the High Court to condone the delay.
your reply will be highly appreciated.

What is the nature of the proceedings? Is it a WP?

Impugned order of DRT has to be assailed in writ only;
You may withdraw the WP with liberty to refile.

vasista Sir, thank you for the solution. Do you mean to say withdraw the wp and refile with the fresh prayer to condone the delay along with other existing prayers to set aside the impugned order and to set aside the sale?
your advice will help me a lot.

In my understanding, limitation is not a decisive aspect, esp. if it is under Article 227
