P-1-FEMA-13 & 14 OF 2019 (1).DOCX Mayur IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION FEMA APPEAL NO. 13 OF 2019 WITH CIVIL APPLICATION NO. 12 OF 2019 Knight Riders Sports Private Limited ...Appellant Versus The Special Director of Enforcement ...Respondent WITH FEMA APPEAL NO. 14 OF 2019 WITH CIVIL APPLICATION NO. 15 OF 2019 Knight Riders Sports Private Limited ...Appellant Versus The Special Director of Enforcement ...Respondent ______________________________________________________ Mr. Vaibhav Singh, Mr. Manas Kotak and Mr. Sohan Kinkhabwala i/b. Veritas Legal, for Appellants. Mr. Anil D. Yadav, for Respondent- Enforcement Directorate. ______________________________________________________ CORAM : M.S. Sonak & Advait M. Sethna, JJ. DATED : 21 November 2025 P.C.:- 1. In this matter, we recall that we were misled by the submissions repeatedly made that the learned third member of the Tribunal to whom the issue of maintainability of the appeal was referred had held the appeal was maintainable, but without giving any opportunity to the Appellant, P-1-FEMA-13 & 14 OF 2019 (1).DOCX proceeded to dismiss the appeal on merits. Based on such a submission, we were inclined to allow this appeal and remand the matter. However, on closer scrutiny, the position was just the opposite. 2. We refrained from taking any action or making any serious remarks in our order after the learned Senior Counsel tendered an unreserved apology. After securing this indulgence comes this Praecipe to further dilute our order. The arguments this time are advanced through the advocate on record or a counsel other than the one who argued and apologised on the earlier occasion. 3. The order was dictated in the open Court in the presence of all Counsel. This Praecipe for speaking to the minutes is misconceived and is therefore dismissed. 4. No costs. (Advait M. Sethna, J) (M.S. Sonak, J.)
