M/s Ganesh Ram Dokania v. Uco Bank
Case brief
What is this about?
A partnership firm challenged its account's classification as NPA and subsequent SARFAESI proceedings by UCO Bank, seeking quashing of the classification and refund of excess interest. The Court declined to entertain the petition on merits, citing the alternate DRT remedy under Section 17 SARFAESI Act and the petitioner's two-and-a-half-year delay, and dismissed the writ.
What did the court decide?
None granted; petitioner left free to challenge SARFAESI proceedings before the concerned DRT with all issues open.
