Basant Balaji, J
Sachu Advait Mohanachandran – Appellant
Versus
Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Limited – Respondent
OP (DRT) NO. 182 OF 2021

Failure to act on initial directive leads to dismissal of appeal for asset restoration under SARFAESI Act.

Headnote:The judgment revolves around the petitioner's request to restore possession of secured assets and to prevent the respondent from taking coercive actions under Section 13 (4) of the SARFAESI Act. The court noted the petitioner's failure to take necessary steps beyond an initial directive. Consequently, it concluded that the application would be closed with the option to reopen if necessary. The relief sought was determined to be not actionable due to lack of follow-up by the petitioner.
