Issues: Whether an order passed under section 14 of the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 is amenable to revisional jurisdiction under section 397 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and whether interference under Article 226 of the Constitution of India was warranted.
Analysis: The order under section 14 was passed after the secured creditor had followed the statutory steps under sections 13(2) and 13(4) of the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002. The Court noted that section 14(3) attaches finality to the act done under section 14 and that such proceedings are not criminal proceedings for the purpose of section 397 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. Reliance was placed on the settled principle that a statutory finality clause does not bar constitutional jurisdiction under Articles 226 and 227, but that principle did not assist the petitioner because the challenge was pursued through revision, not on any ground showing patent error or illegality in the Magistrate's order.
Conclusion: The revision under section 397 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 was not maintainable against the order under section 14 of the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002, and no ground for interference under Article 226 of the Constitution of India was made out.
