Whether the avoidance application under ss. 43, 44, 66 and 69 read with Reg. 35A(3) was barred by limitation was the dominant issue. The tribunal held it was not time-barred because the computation of limitation stood extended by SC's suo motu COVID-19 directions excluding 15.03.2020 to 28.02.2022, and the filing was within the implied period permitted by the prior order granting liberty to apply; further, delay could be condoned without a formal application if sufficient material existed on record, rendering reliance on a contrary CPC-based HC decision inapposite. Consequently, the order refusing to dismiss the application as time-barred and directing hearing on merits was upheld, and the appeal was dismissed. - NCLAT
