Analysis: 1. In IA No.368/2020, the Senior Counsel for the applicant highlighted that while a reply from the first respondent had been received, the reply from the second respondent had not been served yet. The Tribunal allowed the Senior Counsel to collect a copy of the second respondent's reply from the Registry, which was filed on a specific date. The Senior Counsel was also permitted to file a rejoinder, if necessary, to the received replies. Other respondents were directed to file their replies within two weeks from the date of the order, with a provision for rejoinder within one week from the receipt of the reply, ensuring copies were exchanged between the parties. The Tribunal scheduled the listing of IA No.368/2020 for 30.09.2021. 2. Additionally, in IA No.555/2020, the counsel for the applicant confirmed the completeness of the pleadings. As this IA was interconnected with IA No.368/2020, the Tribunal decided to list IA No.555/2020 on the same date, i.e., 30.09.2021, for further proceedings. 3. Moving to IA No.79/2021, the authorized representative for the Liquidator was heard. The Tribunal ordered the issuance of a notice to the respondents to justify why the application should not be admitted. The applicant was directed to promptly collect the notice from the Registry and dispatch it via speed post to the respondents, attaching a copy of the application, the entire paper book, and a copy of the order. In case of non-delivery through speed post, the applicant was instructed to opt for substitute service and advertise the notice in two newspapers with wide circulation. The applicant was required to submit an affidavit of service supported by relevant documents within three weeks. Respondents were given three weeks to file their replies and two weeks for rejoinder, with copies to be exchanged. IA No.79/2021 was scheduled for listing on 25.10.2021. This detailed analysis covers the various issues addressed in the Tribunal's judgment, providing a comprehensive overview of the proceedings and directives issued for each specific matter.
