ORDER : 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. Delay condoned. 3. Leave granted. 4. The respondent is a debtor to the tune of Rs. 325,00,00,000/-(Rupees Three hundred Twenty Five crores only) and above. The Bank has rejected a One Time Settlement proposal to settle for a figure of Rs. 150,00,000/-(Rupees One hundred Fifty crores only), of which the debtor has deposited only Rs. 40,00,00,000/- (Rupees Forty crores only) till date. 5. Meanwhile, an auction of the mortgaged property has already taken place, but, as no interim relief was granted by the Debt Recovery Tribunal by its order dated 06.10.2017, Respondent No. 5, who is the highest bidder, has paid 25% of the bid amount, after which sale confirmation has taken place by a letter dated 07.10.2017. We may hasten to add that on 18.10.2017, a cheque for the balance of 75% was furnished by respondent No. 5, but not encashed, and this was done again on 17.03.2018. 6. In a recent judgment delivered by one of us in Authorised Officer, State Bank of Travancore and Anr. Vs. Mathew K.C. (2018) 3 SCC 85 , we have cautioned against the High Court interfering in such matters in the writ jurisdiction. Such caution has unfortunately not been heeded in the present case. Given the facts of the present case, we, therefore, set-aside the impugned orders passed by the High Court. 7. The appeals are allowed in the aforesaid terms. 8. Pending applications, if any, shall stand disposed of.
