Recusal by tribunal members must strictly conform to Rule 62 of the NCLT Rules, 2016 and cannot be founded on counsel's communications, allegations, or perceived pressure; since the recusals were unreasoned and appeared triggered by an email and courtroom conduct rather than any statutory ground, the recusal orders were held illegal and were quashed.
