New Delhi: March 16, 2026:
In a significant ruling delivered on March 14, 2026, the Bombay High Court set aside an interim order issued by the Pune District Court in a property dispute involving Runwal Enterprises and Bridge Water Realty LLP. The Pune court had earlier restrained Runwal Enterprises from transferring, assigning, or creating third-party interests in a property located at Mouje Lohgaon, Haveli taluka, Pune district.
Runwal Enterprises challenged the order, arguing that it had not received proper notice regarding the Civil Miscellaneous Application filed by Bridge Water Realty. The High Court agreed, holding that principles of natural justice required that the company be given a fair opportunity to respond before such restrictive orders were passed.
