The dominant issue was whether the appeal under Section 61 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 was rightly dismissed as time-barred despite the appellant's explanation for delay. The Court held that the appellate tribunal inadequately and improperly evaluated the "sufficient cause" shown for condonation, warranting interference.
