Mr. Madiraju Babu v. Sir.M.Visvesvaraya Co. Operative Bank Ltd.
Case brief
What is this about?
High Court of Karnataka at Bengaluru (single judge, Jyoti M, J.), WP No. 28089 of 2025 (GM-DRT), NC: 2026:KHC:31019, decided 23.06.2026. Petitioners (including Madiraju Babu, Gayathri Devi, M/S. Sri Venkateshwara Electro Metals and Chemicals, M/S. Siddharth Infotech Pvt. Ltd., Kumaraswamy B.G. and M.S. Usha Rani) sought certiorari against e-auction sale notice dated 27.05.2025 and auction confirmation dated 17.06.2025 issued by Sir M. Visvesvaraya Co-operative Bank Ltd. (respondent No.1); respondent No.2 is Veradappa Prabhakar. Writ petition dismissed because identical relief challenging the e-auction sale notice had been sought before the DRT in S.A. No. 272 of 2025 and was dismissed/disposed on 30.09.2025. Keywords: e-auction sale notice; auction confirmation; certiorari; writ dismissed; prior DRT proceedings; S.A. No. 272 of 2025.
What did the court decide?
Since the petitioner had already questioned the e-auction sale notice dated 27.05.2025 before the DRT in S.A. No. 272 of 2025, and the Tribunal disposed of the same on 30.09.2025, the prayer sought in the writ petition cannot be considered.
