Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
The Supreme Court quashed a High Court order that dismissed a compounding application without stating reasons and struck off names from the list. The Court held that natural justice was violated by failing to explicitly state that prosressive compounding provisions were applicable, thereby allowing the applicant to rely on the limitation period for prosecution enforcement.
What did the court decide?
Impugned order dismissing Exhibit AMC and striking off names quashed; application for Exhibit AMC allowed and strike-out of names removed.
