The Petitioner is a Co-operative Society and not an individual. The Petitioner learnt about the order passed by the District Deputy Registrar only on 22nd November, 2010 and, thereafter, the Revision Application was filed in the month of March, 2011. It is not dispute that there is a delay. However a lenient view ought to have been taken by the learned District Deputy Registrar, Co-operative Societies-III, Mumbai Division, Mumbai. It is well settled that every day of delay is not required to be explained. 5 In view of this, case for interference is made out. The delay will have to be condoned, subject to payment of costs of Rs.3,000/- to be paid to Respondent No.3. 6 Hence, I pass the following order:- (i) Rule made absolute in terms of prayer clause (a), subject to payment of costs of Rs.3,000/- to be paid by the Petitioner to Respondent No.3 within a period of four weeks from today. (ii) If costs is not paid, this order will be re-called and the Writ Petition will be dismissed. (G.S.GODBOLE,J.)
