Challenging the measures initiated by the financial institution under the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002, the petitioners have already approached the Debts Recovery Tribunal, which is the appropriate forum, by way of filing securitization application No.6 of 2023. Therefore, we are not inclined to interfere in the matter and permit the petitioners to maintain parallel proceedings both before this Court and the Tribunal, which is not permissible under law. 3. So, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the petitioners to pursue their remedy before the Debts Recovery Tribunal in the securitization application that is pending adjudication before it. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, Interlocutory Applications pending, if any, shall stand closed. ________________________________________ JUSTICE CHEEKATI MANAVENDRANATH ROY _____________________________ JUSTICE TUHIN KUMAR GEDELA Date: 30.01.2026 MDP
