BRIJESH KUMAR, ARUN KUMAR, V. N. KHARE
Mardia Chemicals LTD. Etc. – Appellant
Versus
Union Of IndiaEtc. – Respondent


Judgement Key Points

The legal document provided primarily discusses the validity and provisions of the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 (SARFAESI Act). However, it does not specify a particular monetary threshold or amount to which SARFAESI is applicable.

Generally, the SARFAESI Act applies to secured loans where the amount secured by the security interest exceeds a certain threshold, which is typically prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India or relevant authorities. The document emphasizes the enforcement provisions, the process, and the safeguards but does not specify a specific monetary limit or amount.

Therefore, based on the provided document, there is no explicit mention of a specific amount to which SARFAESI is applicable. It is understood that the applicability depends on the classification of the asset as a non-performing asset and the security interest created, rather than a fixed monetary figure detailed in this particular text.
