Summary
Shagun Fibers filed Writ Petition No. 3793 of 2026 in the Bombay High Court. During the hearing, the petitioner's counsel sought to withdraw the petition, requesting liberty to file a reply to a show‑cause notice issued by the court. The respondents opposed the withdrawal, arguing that the petition should be adjudicated on its merits. The Court examined whether a petition may be withdrawn while preserving the right to file a reply to the show‑cause notice. It held that the petition could be withdrawn with the liberty sought, directing the petitioner to file the reply within six weeks and keeping all parties' contentions open. Consequently, the petition was disposed of as withdrawn with liberty as prayed for.
