Thungabhadra Industries Ltd vs The Government Of Andhra Pradesh on 22 October, 1963
6. While considering the power of review, their Lordships of the Supreme Court observed in Thungabhadra Industries Ltd. v. The Government of Andhra Pradesh that although a review is by no means an appeal in disguise, whereby an erroneous decision is reheard and corrected, but it does lie to rectify the patent error. Where without any elaborate argument one could point to the error and say here is a substantial point of law which stares one in the face, and there could reasonably be no two opinions entertained about it, a clear case of error apparent on the face of the record would be made out. In the instant case, it stares one in the face that an incorrect statement on a point of fact was made and entertained to defeat the claim of the tenant to raise the plea on the basis of comparative hardship inasmuch as it was yet to be decided if the landlords could meet heir requirement by partial eviction of the tenant from the premises. Thus, my opinion, a case for review even on the basis of the ratio of that decision by the Supreme Court is maintainable.
