Case Note & Summary
The matter before the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal involved an application to extend the time granted for curing defects in a Memo of Appeal. The Appellants, Manoj Kumar Goyal and another, had e-filed their Memo of Appeal on 20.08.2026. Upon scrutiny, the Office identified defects and notified the Appellants on 07.09.2026.
