Belated filing of reply permitted with e-portal compliance, and rejoinder preserved for the next hearing.

The Tribunal permitted belated filing of a corporate debtor's reply after the prescribed time, subject to filing it on the e-portal within three days, whereupon it would be taken on record. It also required the copy already served to be placed on record and directed that any rejoinder be filed and produced on the next date of hearing, thereby preserving the opposing party's right to respond to the additional pleadings. The application was disposed of on these procedural terms.

Outcome: The application to modify the earlier order and permit filing of the reply was allowed, and the reply was taken on record subject to filing on the portal within the stipulated time.
