Amendment of pleadings: the Tribunal upheld the Adjudicating Authority's discretion to permit an amended Form No.1 altering the date of default because amendments or additional documents may be filed before a final order on an insolvency admission application; outcome-liberty to amend was valid and amendment stands. Limitation and prejudice: the Tribunal applied established amendment principles, noting the amended plea remained within limitation and no valuable right of the respondent was lost; outcome-no prejudice shown and reply opportunity sufficed. Procedural exercise of discretion: the authority must assess admission ingredients on pleadings and documents; outcome-matter remitted for merits determination.
