Section 107(4) of the Act allows the Appellate Authority to condone delay by permitting an appeal to be filed within an additional one month period if the appellant shows sufficient cause for missing the primary three or six month window; therefore a 15 day delay justified by non fanciful grounds cannot be defeated by a hyper technical threshold dismissal.
