<h1>Delhi High Court: Banks Must Provide Documents for Effective Defense in 'Fraud' Account Case, Ensuring Fair Hearing Rights.</h1> A writ petition was filed by a former director and guarantor of a company against several banks challenging Show Cause Notices (SCNs) issued for declaring the company's account as 'Fraud'. The petitioner argued that the SCNs were issued without providing necessary documents, preventing a proper response and violating the Principles of Natural Justice. The Delhi High Court emphasized the need to provide relevant documents to enable an effective defense and directed that the petitioner be allowed to inspect the company's records held by the lead bank and the Resolution Professional. The court ordered the banks to provide the requested documents within specified timelines and allowed the petitioner to request a personal hearing. The petition was disposed of with these directions, reinforcing the right to be heard and access relevant information before an adverse decision.
