Phoenix Arc Private Limited vs Vishwa Bharati Vidya Mandir on 12 January, 2022

In Phoenix ARC (P) Ltd. v. Vishwa Bharati Vidya Mandir [(2022) 5 SCC 345] the Apex Court was dealing with a case in which Phoenix ARC (P) Ltd. (for brevity 'ARC'), which is a private financial institution, proposed to take action under the SARFAESI Act to recover the borrowed amount as a secured creditor. The Apex Court held that ARC as such cannot be said to be performing public functions which are normally expected to be performed by State authorities. During the course of a commercial transaction and under the contract, the bank/ARC lends money to the borrowers and the said activity of the bank/ARC cannot be said to be as performing a public function, which is normally expected W.A.Nos.604 and 805 of 2026 20 2026:KER:29110 to be performed by the State authorities. If proceedings are initiated under the SARFAESI Act and/or any proposed action is to be taken, and the borrower is aggrieved by any of the actions of the private bank/bank/ARC, he has to avail the remedy under the SARFESI Act, and no writ petition would lie and/or is maintainable and/or entertainable.
