ORDER
Ld. Counsel for respondent bank is present in VC.
This matter is pending for the submission of Ld. Counsel for petitioners/appellants. When the matter was heard on 31.1.2025, it was adjourned to this date under the same caption of ‘last chance’. It was also observed that failure to advance arguments by Ld. Counsel for petitioners would result in dismissal of waiver application.
Today, Ld Counsel on record for petitioners/appellants is not present and advocate Shri Kannan representing Ld. Counsel for petitioners/appellants seeks further time.
Since there is a specific order passed on 31.1.2025 that failing to advance arguments would result in dismissal of waiver application, no further adjournment can be granted.
Therefore, Application IA 483/2024 (Waiver) is dismissed for non prosecution resulting in the dismissal of Appeal AIR(SA) 1058/2024.
