Case Note & Summary
The case involved an application by Zest Heights Pvt. Ltd. to extend the time for curing defects in their Memo of Appeal. The Appellants had e-filed the Memo of Appeal on 10.07.2026, but the Office identified defects on 24.07.2026 and notified the Appellants. The Appellants subsequently re-filed the Appeal on 20.08.2026. During the hearing, no representative appeared for the Appellants. The Tribunal reviewed the Interlocutory Application and the Office report, finding the reasons provided for the delay to be sufficient. Consequently, the Tribunal condoned the 20-day delay in re-filing the Memo of Appeal and ordered that the case be listed for admission under the fresh case heading. The Interlocutory Application was thus disposed of.
