The court examined whether possession assistance could be granted when the assignee’s rights were pending approval. It upheld the rejection, holding that verification of a valid assignment is mandatory under Section 14.
The appellate tribunal upheld joint liability where accepted bills remained unpaid and the appellants failed to rebut the bank’s evidence. The ruling confirms that unchallenged documentary claims can sustain recovery orders.
The appellate tribunal held that a date discrepancy in the possession notice was a harmless typographical error. It ruled that SARFAESI procedures were substantially complied with and restored the bank’s recovery action.
The tribunal dismissed the appeal, confirming that repeated failure to file written statements despite ample opportunity validates ex-parte recovery orders.
The appellate tribunal held that the bank had duly served, published, and affixed the sale notice as required under Rule 8(6). It ruled that the DRT erred in cancelling the auction despite full statutory compliance.
The appellate tribunal upheld the award of 9% interest on refund to an auction purchaser, holding that statutory violations by the bank’s authorised officer justified compensation despite a no-interest clause.
The appellate tribunal held that the magistrate had lawfully exercised powers under Section 14 after considering the statutory affidavit. The DRT’s restraint on recovery action was found to be contrary to law and was set aside.
The appellate tribunal held that the bank violated Rule 8(5) by conducting the auction nearly ten months after valuation without obtaining a fresh report. The sale and subsequent actions were set aside on this ground.
The tribunal held that objections to the maintainability of a bank’s Original Application claiming over Rs. 50 crores were rejected, affirming DRT jurisdiction over debts arising from fraudulent withdrawals.
The appellate tribunal upheld cancellation of the auction after finding that possession and sale notices were not properly served. It ruled that recovery actions without statutory compliance cannot be sustained.
