application under Section 17(1) of the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 has

already been moved by Respondent No.1 i.e. MAN Industries (India) Limited, let the issue be threshed out on due contest between the parties before

the Debt Recovery Tribunal.

Counsel representing the Banks submits that they have certain valid legal objections which could be sustainable and that flows from the time frame

which has been prescribed under the statue for moving such application.
