Condonation of delay - delay of 280 days - sufficient cause - The Tribunal noted that the delay was due to the callous and lackadaisical approach of the appellant in not preferring the appeal within the stipulated time period. - Referring to legal precedents, the Tribunal emphasized the importance of a bona fide explanation for condonation of delay and strict adherence to the law of limitation. - Despite the liberal construction of the term "sufficient cause," the Tribunal found no plausible explanation from the appellant justifying the substantial delay in filing the appeal.
