Holding

The court held that a delay of 70 days in filing the revision application may be condoned.

Summary

The applicants filed a revision application (Stamp No. 17145 of 2026) seeking to challenge an order, but the filing was delayed by 70 days. They moved an interim application before the Bombay High Court requesting condonation of the delay. Counsel for the applicants submitted an affidavit in reply supporting the condonation. The Court, after considering the submissions and the affidavit, found that the reasons for delay were satisfactory and therefore condoned the 70‑day delay. Consequently, the revision application was allowed, registered, and scheduled for hearing on 28 October 2026, with leave to file a further affidavit in reply. The order was pronounced by Justice Shivkumar Dige.
