How to oppose request for ws by opponent after no ws order has been passed ?

You can file objections and argue the case with whatever material you have,,, but mostly courts are lenient in allowing such filings subject to costs.

Ok. But then how much costs can I ask for ? And what is the criteria to ask for costs ? What is the quantum of the costs that is awarded .

Also what kind of costs can I ask for : Actual costs or opportunity costs or both.

Also I need to understand whether if the opposite party refuses to pay costs than the court will not accept the WRITTEN STATEMENT. I need a clarification on this .

The court will  decide the cost .

Thank you very much for the replies.

But as I understand if the opposite party refuses to pay costs than no witten statement will be allowed.

Pls let me know if my understanding is correct .

Also , in case if I decide to challnge the order to allow WS , where can the order be challenged in cooperative appellate court or high court.

You can file objections ,then court will hear and orders will be passed ,the aggrieved party can approach high court .

Justice entails that the other party be heard. As such Courts and Tribunals adopt in allowing the other party  to file reply/written statement.

Opposite pafty can file ws within 90 days from receipt of summons of case, beyond this period oppoditr party has to show reasonable cause due to which they could not file ws in time.Court on satisfaction of reason may allow to take ws on record .

The maximum time limit for filing of a written statement would be 120 days irrespective of whether the suit is a commercial suit coming under the Commercial Courts Act or an ordinary suit and in no event the court is entitled to grant an extension to file the written statement beyond the period of 120 days

If court allows  petition to file w.s you can approach High court but it is delay tactis  so simply tell to court it may be allowed with heavy costs to avoid much delay .

Dear all eminent lawyers,

Pls comment as to how to decide on the quantum of the costs and who will decide the costs ?

Hope to see many responses and many thanks in advance for the same.

The court will decide cost you can insist court to impose heavy cost but it is discretion on court how much cost .
