Limitation under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code is strict, time-bound and jurisdictional: an appeal must be filed in defect-free form within the statutory outer limit, and a defective presentation cannot be perfected at leisure. The procedural period for removing defects or seeking condonation of re-filing delay under the Supreme Court Rules cannot override the Code's timeline. Once the outer limit and the defect-cure period are both exhausted, the right of appeal stands extinguished and no condonation survives. The plea for a liberal approach, including the appellant's status as liquidator and reliance on Article 142, was rejected, and sufficient cause was not shown in any event.
