Holding

The writ petition is disposed of as the petitioner has complied with the Court's directions and taken possession of the secured asset.

Summary

The petitioner, Motilal Oswal Home Finance Limited, a secured creditor, filed a writ petition seeking possession of a secured asset. The High Court had earlier issued directions on 23 September 2026 for the petitioner to take physical possession. The petitioner informed the Court that these directions had been complied with and possession had been handed over. The Court noted compliance, directed the State authorities to act on a trespass complaint filed by the petitioner on 23 June 2026, and instructed the petitioner to protect its possession. Consequently, the Court disposed of the writ petition and any pending applications.

Issues considered

  • What relief, if any, should be granted to the petitioner after compliance with the Court's earlier directions?
  • Whether the petition should be dismissed now that possession has been handed over to the secured creditor?
