Case Note & Summary

The case involved an application for recall and modification of an earlier order dated 11.12.2025, which dismissed Company Appeal (AT) (Ins.) No. 1567 of 2025. The appellant, Vikas Goel, contended that he had not filed any appeal in the Supreme Court and that the order from the Supreme Court did not pertain to his case. The respondent, Bank of Baroda, argued that the appellant's case was covered under the Supreme Court's order. The Tribunal, upon reviewing the facts, determined that since the appellant had not filed an appeal and no relevant order from the Supreme Court applied to him, it was appropriate to recall the previous order and allow the appeal to be heard afresh. Consequently, the Tribunal scheduled the appeal for a fresh hearing on 08.07.2026.
