2003 (11) TMI 327 - SUPREME COURTWhether it is a fit case where suo motu power of revision should be exercised? Held that:- Appeal allowed. The second proviso appended to section 67F of the Act provides that no order prejudicial to a person can be passed under this section without giving him an opportunity of being heard. The principles of natural justice by reason of the aforementioned statutory provision, therefore, have been extended only in a case where the proceeding is initiated in terms of the said provision and the order is proposed to be passed which would be prejudicial to the parties to the lis. As the respondent herein had no statutory right to file a revision application only because his application requesting the Commissioner to exercise suo motu revisional powers had not been entertained, the same would not mean that any order prejudicial to him had been passed.
