Holding
The court held that it may recall the earlier order and correct the typographical error, replacing “applicant Nos.1A to 1G” with “Nos.1A to 1E”.
Summary
The petitioners filed a civil application seeking to recall an order dated 30.07.2026 in Civil Application No.8089 of 2026 and to correct a typographical error in prayer clause “B”, where the names of applicants were mistakenly listed as Nos.1A to 1G instead of Nos.1A to 1E. The petitioner’s counsel argued that the error prevented the intended withdrawal of amounts and sought a correction. The respondent representing the acquiring body raised no objection to the correction. The court examined whether it could recall and amend its own order to rectify the clerical mistake. Finding no substantive prejudice, the court permitted the correction, recalling the earlier order and substituting the correct applicant range. The application was allowed and the civil application was disposed of.

CORAM : AJIT B. KADETHANKAR, J.
DATED : 1st October 2026
P.C. :-
. This Civil Application is filed for recalling of order dated
30.07.2026 passed in Civil Application No. 8089 of 2026 and
amending prayer clause “B” of the said application.
2. Mr. S. S. Patunkar, learned Advocate for the applicants
submits that although the application was filed for withdrawal
of the amount by applicant Nos.1A to 1E, mistakenly, in
prayer clause “B”, it was mentioned as applicant Nos.1A to 1G.
He further submits that the said application came to be
allowed in terms of the details given by the applicants in
prayer clause “B”. Now, his genuine difficulty is that due to
2
935 CA 11451 OF 2026
this typographical error, he is unable to withdraw the amount.
Hence, this application is filed for recalling of the order dated
30.07.2026 passed by this Court in Civil Application No.8089
of 2026 and for leave to correct the typographical error in the
said application.
3. Mr. Atul B. Kuber h/f. Mr. S. V. Deshmukh, learned
Advocate for the acquiring body fairly submits that he has no
objection to pass appropriate order.
4. I have seen the prayer clause “B” of the said application
which is part of the present Civil Application, being incorrect.
In view of this, the applicants are permitted to cure prayer
clause “B” of Civil Application No.8089 of 2026. Correction be
carried out forthwith.
5. In view of this, Civil Application is allowed. The order
dated 30.07.2026 passed in Civil Application No.8089 of 2026
is recalled and corrected by replacing the words “applicant
Nos.1A to 1G” by the words “Nos.1A to 1E” in prayer clause
“B” of the operative order.
6. Civil Application stands disposed of.
