Order No. 08.12.2025

01. This matter is taken up through Hybrid arrangement (video conferencing/physical mode). This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner-Pratap Bag, who is the auction purchaser with a prayer for a direction to the opposite parties to issue the sale letter/certificate in his favour, as he has deposited the full bid amount.

As it appears from the averments taken in the writ petition that the petitioner, pursuant to the e- auction sale notice, offered his participation in the auction, which was held on 13.11.2024 and he was declared as the successful bidder and he deposited Rs.4,67,500/- towards the EMD on 20.11.2024 and thereafter on different occasion, he deposited the bid amount totaling Rs.46,75,000/-. The petitioner finally deposited Rs.3,01,250/- on 28.11.2024 and approached the Branch Manager with request for extension of time for depositing the balance bid amount, which was granted and ultimately on 13.06.2025, the petitioner deposited the balance bid amount towards the full consideration and it is stated that the opposite parties accepted the same and transferred to the SARFAESI proceeding account and requested the Regional Manager for issuance of the Sale Certificate in favour of the petitioner, but such Certificate has not yet been issued.

Mr. Gurudutta Kar, learned counsel is appearing for the opposite parties filed Vakalatnama in the Court today. The said Vakalatnama is taken on record. Mr. Kar, learned counsel submits that he has obtained instruction that the petitioner has to pay the amount towards the interest and charge and once he deposits the said amount, there would be no difficulty in issuing the Sale Certificate.

However, it is not clear as to how much amount is to be paid by the petitioner and Mr. Kar, learned counsel submits that he will file an affidavit of the concerned Branch Manager to that effect after serving a copy to the learned counsel for the petitioner by

15.12.2025.

List this matter on 17.12.2025.
