HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:34125 WP No. 10802 of 2025
ORAL ORDER The petitioner is a borrower and is aggrieved by the decision to initiate proceedings under the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 [for short, 'SARFAESI Act']. The respondent - Bank has issued possession notice dated 16.12.2024 [Annexure - A]. This Court on 22.04.2025, has granted interim
order staying proceedings pursuant to the possession notice, subject to deposit 20% of the amount in due within eight weeks.
The office has listed this petition today because the office objections have not been attended to and it is pointed out that one of the office objections is non- payment of Court fee. Mr. Vignesh S. Shetty, the
learned counsel for the respondents when queried, states that the petitioner has complied with the terms of the impugned order asserting that if the petitioner has any grievance with the possession notice, he

must necessarily avail remedy under Section 17 of the SARFAESI Act.
None appeared for the petitioner on the previous occasion and none appears for the petitioner even today. If the office objections are not attended, especially the office objection as regards the payment of Court fee remains unattended to despite multiple opportunities, the petition must be dismissed, and the petition must be disposed of but observing that this disposal shall not preclude the petitioner from availing any remedy that may otherwise be in law.
The petition stands disposed of accordingly.
