https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=124772 For condonation of delay under section 5 of the Indian Limitation Act, 1908, the applicant need not explain conduct throughout the entire limitation period. The relevant inquiry is whether sufficient cause existed for not filing on the last day of limitation and whether the delay thereafter is satisfactorily explained. General criticism of lack of diligence during the whole period is not, by itself, a ground to refuse condonation under section 5, though broader bona fides and diligence may arise under section 14 or a combined application of sections 5 and 14. The one-day delay was condoned, and the appeal was remitted for disposal on merits. en-us Thu, 04 May 1961 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 16:01:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=124772 For condonation of delay under section 5 of the Indian Limitation Act, 1908, the applicant need not explain conduct throughout the entire limitation period.
