NCLAT proceedings - Requirements from the parties before the NCLAT to file brief written submissions and copies of the judgments - even assuming that there was no categorical direction by the NCLAT to supply a copy to the Respondent, it was incumbent upon the Appellant to share a copy with the Respondent, to enable the Respondent to defend its case and rebut the issues highlighted by the Appellant in the written submissions. It would be a travesty of justice if the NCLAT takes into account the written submissions of one party without a copy having been shared / exchanged with the other party. - HC
