Decided
Disposal
Disposed Off

Holding

The impugned order is not revisable under Section 115 of the Civil Procedure Code, 1908.

Summary

Jayant Furnishers Private Limited filed an interim application seeking restoration of a civil revision petition that had been dismissed for non‑prosecution. The revision petition was intended to challenge an order allowing the defendant’s application under Section 8 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The Court examined whether the impugned order was revisable under Section 115 of the Civil Procedure Code, 1908. It held that the order was not subject to revision under that provision, rendering restoration unnecessary. Consequently, the interim application was dismissed, though the Court noted that the applicant could pursue other appropriate legal remedies.

Issues considered

  • Whether the order allowing the defendant’s application under Section 8 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 is revisable under Section 115 of the Civil Procedure Code, 1908.

                                                       DATED : 28th JANUARY 2026


                      ORDER:

                      1.    This application is for restoration of the civil revision

                      application which was dismissed for non-prosecution. The civil

                      revision application is filed by the original plaintiff to challenge the

                      order allowing the application filed by the defendant under Section 8

                      of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.

                      2.     The impugned order is therefore not revisable under Section

                      115 of the Civil Procedure Code, 1908. Hence, no purpose would be

                      served by restoring the civil revision application.

3.     However, it is clarified that the applicant would be at liberty to

adopt appropriate proceedings as permissible in law to challenge

the order impugned in the civil revision application. All rival

contentions are kept open.

4.     The interim application is dismissed, subject to the aforesaid

liberty.
