The Debt Recovery Appellate Tribunal, Mumbai, heard applications for condonation of delay in four DRAT appeals where the respondent bank did not file a reply. Condonation was granted based on the short delay of five days and explained reasons.
Delay in filing the Appeals is condoned. The Appeals shall be taken on the file if there are no defects to be cured.
