POORVI SHAHversusMINTIFI PRIVATE LIMITED

Decided
Disposal
DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The court held that the erroneous phrase must be deleted and the order read accordingly.

Summary

The applicant, Poorvi Shah, filed an interim application seeking correction of a clerical error in the order dated 2 September 2026 in Suit No. 184 of 2025. The order mistakenly recorded a statement that an additional affidavit had been filed, which was not the case. The applicant contended that the phrase "and though writ of summons was served upon the company, she submits that an additional affidavit placing this material on record has also been filed" should be deleted. The court examined the submission and agreed that the wording was erroneous. Consequently, the court ordered that the said paragraph be read without the erroneous words, effectively amending the original order. No substantive merits of the underlying suit were addressed.

  • Whether the phrase regarding an additional affidavit should be deleted
