State Of Himachal Pradesh And Others vs Of on 6 May, 2016

In dealing with the applications for condonation of delay filed on behalf of the State and its agencies/instrumentalities this Court has, while emphasizing that same yardstick should be applied for deciding the applications for condonation of delay filed by private individuals and the State, observed that certain amount of latitude is not impermissible in the latter case because the State represents collective cause of the community and the decisions are taken by the officers/agencies at a slow pace and encumbered process of pushing the files from table to table consumes considerable time causing delay - G. Ramegowda v. Spl. Land Acquisition Officer (1988) 2 SCC 142, State of Haryana v. Chandra Mani (1996) 3 SCC 132, State of U.P. v. Harish Chandra (1996) 9 SCC 309, State of Bihar v. Ratan Lal Sahu (1996) 10 SCC 635, State of Nagaland v. Lipok Ao (2005) 3 SCC 752, and State (NCT of Delhi) v. Ahmed Jaan (2008) 14 SCC 582.

Shivamma (Dead) By Lrs vs Karnataka Housing Board on 12 September, 2025

211. The earlier decisions of this Court, particularly in K.V. Ayisumma (supra), Chandra Mani (supra), Lipok AO (supra) and Indian Oil Corpn (supra) insofar as they favoured a liberal approach towards the State or any of its instrumentality in matters of condonation of delay, and showed indulgence Special Leave Petition (C) No. 10704 of 2019 Page 140 of 170 in condoning the same on ground of impersonal and slow-moving nature of these entities, no longer reflects the correct position in law. No litigant, be it a private party or a State or any of its functionaries, is entitled to a broader margin of error, falling in the category of inaction, negligence or casualness, in matters of limitation.

G.Babu vs The State on 6 June, 2017

4. As held by this Court in State of Nagaland v. Lipok Ao and Ors. MANU/SC/0250/2005 : (2005) 3 SCC 752, the court must always take a justice-oriented approach while considering an application for condonation of delay. If the court is convinced that there had been an attempt on the part of the government officials or public servants to defeat justice by causing delay, the court, in view of the larger public interest, should take a lenient view in such situations, condone the delay, howsoever huge may be the delay, and have the matter decided on merits.

M/S Uttarakhand Power Corporation ... vs M/S Uttar Bharat Hydro Power Pvt. Ltd & ... on 24 July, 2020

(Emphasis supplied) 7.20 Taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case and the law laid down by the Apex Court and this Court in host of judgments, the instant application filed by the applicant/appellant is liable to succeed by condoning the delay in filing the Appeal in the interest of justice and equity. The fact that it was the UPCL which was seeking condonation and not a private party was altogether irrelevant. The doctrine of equality before law demands that all litigants, including the State as a litigant, are accorded the same treatment and the law is administered in an even-handed manner. There is no warrant for according a step-motherly treatment when the State is the Applicant/Appellant. The balance of convenience lies in favour of the Applicant/Appellant as if the delay is not condoned, the consumer will unnecessarily be burdened. Hence, we are of the considered view that it will be in the interest of justice and equity that the delay be condoned. The Appellant/Applicant hereby declines that nothing material has been concealed or suppressed.

Bank Of India vs Chotanagpur Graphite Industries And ... on 23 August, 2006

15. The decisions referred to and discussed above, to my mind, unmistakably lean in favour of condonation of the delay the petitioner has prayed for. The decisions referred to and relied upon by the respondent do not apply. However, much the opposite party-respondents try to find loopholes in the whole period of the delay, the applicant-Bank has successfully plugged them to show that the so-called lapses were in no way deliberate or intentional but only a part of the usually time-consuming and routine administrative process the movements of files in the Banking, for that matter, Government departments, entail. So, a liberal approach has to be taken in the matter of condonation of delay in terms of the guidelines of the Supreme Court in State of Nagaland v. Lipok A.O. (supra), as cited above.
