When the Appeal was earlier heard, Learned Counsel for the SRA has submitted that the SRA has no objection in getting the units registered in the name of the Appellant who is getting in possession, however, certain complaints were filed by the Applicant under Section 138 of the Negotiable & Instruments Act which are pending. On 18.08.2025 in the order sheet, we noted following:-

“18.08.2025: Counsel appearing for the Successful Resolution Applicant submits that the issue between the parties is only with regard to registration of the Sale Deed and the Appellant has to withdraw complaint cases filed under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruction Act which are pending. Counsel for the Respondent submits that the Appeal be taken after a week. In the meantime, both the parties shall endeavor to complete their obligations as recorded in the Affidavits which are on the record which shall be without prejudice to the rights of the parties.

2.

As prayed, list both the Appeals on 01.09.2025.”

Counsel for the Appellant has submitted that the Appellant has no objection in withdrawing the complaints but said withdrawal shall be made only after units are registered in favour of the Appellant. He undertakes to withdraw the complaints within 7 days from registration of the units. Learned Counsel for the Appellant submits that in event the units are registered the Appellant has no issue regarding approval of the Resolution Plan.

6.

Counsel for the NOIDA Authority has submitted that the NOIDA has no objection with respect to conveyance in favour of the allottees/ beneficiaries which is proposed to be undertaken strictly on a pro-rata basis, commensurate with the payments received from the SRA. In paragraphs 6 and 7 of the reply, following has been pleaded:-

“6.

At the outset, it is respectfully submitted that the process of execution of conveyance/registry in favour of the allottees/beneficiaries is proposed to be undertaken strictly on a pro-rata basis, commensurate with the payments received from the Successful Resolution Applicant.
