Condonation Denied for Unexplained 1,251-Day Delay in Refiling Special Leave Petition on R&D Expenditure under s.35(2AB) &DExpenditure
SC refused condonation of an unexplained 1,251-day delay in refiling a special leave petition concerning expenditure on scientific research under s.35(2AB) for a research and development facility. The application to condone delay was rejected for lack of sufficient grounds, and consequently the special leave petition was dismissed.
The court refused to condone a delay of 1,251 days in re-filing a special leave petition, holding that there were "no sufficient grounds to condone the abnormal delay of 1251 days in refiling special leave petition. The application for condonation of delay is rejected accordingly. As a consequence, special leave petition is also dismissed." The order thus rejects the condonation application and disposes of the petition on delay grounds, applying the principle that inordinate and unexplained delay in seeking special leave warrants dismissal. No reasons addressing the merits were considered because the procedural bar of delay was determinative. No appearance was recorded on behalf of the respondent.
