The appellant argued that on the date of entering the contract, i.e., 02-09-2016, respondent 1 was not registered as a small-scale industry, as it was registered only on 14-12-2016. The appellant relied on legal precedents and asserted that no proceedings could be initiated under the MSMED Act. On the other hand, the respondents contended that once a unit is registered as a small-scale industry, subsequent supplies should be treated as made by a small-scale unit, making the application maintainable under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001546077\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">15<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002942157\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MSMED Act<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted that the issue for consideration is whether the application filed by respondent 1 under Section 15 of the Act is maintainable given the registration status of respondent 1 as a small-scale industry at the time of contract formation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court, after considering the arguments advanced an authorities cited such as <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Vaishno Enterprises<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Hamilton Medical AG<\/span>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/K6E3RW11\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2022 SCC OnLine SC 355<\/a>, <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Nitesh Estates Ltd.<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Micro &amp; Small Enterprises Facilitation Council of Haryana<\/span>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/E1cgjCGS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2022 SCC OnLine SC 1198<\/a>, and <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Silpi Industries<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Kerala State Road Transport Corpn.<\/span>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/rRDts317\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2021 SCC OnLine SC 439<\/a>, expressed a prima facie view that the application might not be maintainable under the MSMED Act. However, the Court is inclined to entertain the appeal due to doubts regarding the maintainability of the application under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001546077\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">15<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002942157\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MSMED Act<\/a>, despite the appellant having an alternative remedy under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544939\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">34<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726958\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court has decided to entertain the appeal to determine the maintainability of the application under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001546077\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">15<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002942157\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MSMED Act<\/a>, with further proceedings scheduled for April 2024 and a stay on execution until then.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">K K Electro Trade<\/span> v.
