IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 210 OF 2008 A.K.Nanda & Ors. ..... ...... ......Applicants. V/s B.Chandra & Anr. ..... ...... ... ...Respondents. Mr.Shirish Gupte, Sr. Adv. For the applicants. Mrs.M.H.Mhatre, APP For the State. CORAM: A.P.DESHPANDE, J. 31/1/08 PC: The Deputy Registrar of Companies filed a complaint under section 211(7) of the Companies Act. The present applicants are accused in CC No.4354/S/00. The Magistrate took cognizance of the complaint and issued process on 20.6.2000. The present applicants did not challenge the order of issue process for almost a period of five years. In the year 2005 writ petition bearing No.1819/05 came to be filed. This Court declined to entertain the petition as an alternate efficacious remedy in the form of revision was available to the present applicants. The applicants filed revision application along with application for condonation of delay. The Sessions Judge rejected the condonation of delay application being of the view that the delay of about 5 years has not been properly explained. Perused the impugned order. Same does not call for interference. Learned counsel at this stage 1 submits that this Court can independently consider the challenge to issue of process. In the facts of the present case I do not deem it fit to entertain the present application. Hence the same is rejected. 31.1.08 2
