ATLAS PVC PIPES LIMITED VERSUS STATE OF ODISHA & OTHERS [2022 (7) TMI 130 - ORISSA HIGH COURT]. In effect, the Court concluded that the non-production of the hard copy of the impugned order is only a technical defect and that the appeal is required to be processed provided the appeal was filed within time.
