For the Respondents: Official Liquidator

The court held that res judicata applies, as the issues had attained finality in prior decisions, making further applications on the same matters impermissible.

Headnote:The cases involve applications filed for the sale of a certain property under various provisions of the Companies Act and the IBC. The court considers past rulings and the finality of decisions related to the petitioner's claims. The court concludes that the continuous litigation is an attempt to delay the sale and ultimately dismisses the application for lack of merit. Final direction mandates the dismissal of the latest application as impermissible.
