In Brief
In this Supreme Court proceeding, New Era Fabrics Ltd, a tenant in a rent control dispute, produced certified copies with handwritten interpolations during court proceedings and made false submissions to the Supreme Court regarding share capital reduction. The Court found prima facie evidence of fabrication of documents and false evidence. The judgment allowed an application directing the Supreme Court's Secretary General to lodge complaints against the company before a Magistrate for criminal prosecution under the Indian Penal Code sections on false evidence and fabrication."
