\n

Civil Procedure Code, 1908<\/a> — S. 96<\/a>, Or. 41 Rr. 31<\/a> and 33<\/a><\/b>: Principles summarised regarding powers and duty of first appellate court in deciding an appeal under S. 96<\/a> CPC<\/a> r\/w Or. 41 R. 31<\/a>. Cryptic and cursory approach of High Court as first appellate court is not sustainable. Remand to first appellate court to determine the matter afresh, when unwarranted, explained. [Somakka<\/i> v. K.P. Basavaraj<\/i>, (2022) 8 SCC 261<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Court Fees Act, 1870<\/a> — S. 7(iv)(d)<\/a> and provisos thereto — Valuation of court fees<\/b>: Market value of immovable property involved in litigation might have its relevance depending on nature of relief claimed but, ultimately, valuation of any particular suit has to be decided primarily with reference to relief\/reliefs claimed. It remains trite that it is nature of relief claimed in plaint which is decisive of question of suit valuation. As a necessary corollary, market value does not become decisive of suit valuation merely because an immovable property is subject-matter of litigation. [Bharat Bhushan Gupta<\/i> v. Pratap Narain Verma<\/i>, (2022) 8 SCC 333<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In this case, clarified that the observations recorded by the Magistrate in the order dt. 1-4-2010, will not be treated as a binding determination on the issues pertaining to possession and title. The interests of the petitioner were fully protected by High Court, by relegating the petitioner to seek the redressal of its grievance, before a competent civil court. [Asset Reconstruction Co. (India) Ltd.<\/i> v. Inspector of Police<\/i>, (2022) 8 SCC 238<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

(d), (e) and (f) of S. 2(1), are fulfilled. If they are not so fulfilled, mere use of the expressions of the statute in the sanction order would be of no effect but, on the other hand, if the requirements are fulfilled, mere want of any expression or word in a particular passage in the sanction order would not take away the substance of the matter. Scope of “organised crime” under MCOCA, explained. [Abhishek<\/i> v. State of Maharashtra<\/i>, (2022) 8 SCC 282<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Further, an ipse dixit of the authority that it has not relied on certain material would not exempt it of its liability to disclose such material if it is relevant to and has a nexus to the action that is taken by the authority. In all reasonable probability, such material would have influenced the decision reached by the authority. Thus, the actual test is whether the material that is required to be disclosed is relevant for purpose of adjudication; if it is, then the principles of natural justice require its due disclosure. [T. Takano<\/i> v. SEBI<\/i>, (2022) 8 SCC 162<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
