Chapter XII APPEALS AND REVIEW

(1) Subject to the provisions of section 100, an appeal shall lie under this section against— (a) an order made by the Central Registrar under sub-section (3) of section 7 refusing to register a multi-State co-operative society; (b) an order made by the Central Registrar under sub-section (9) of section 11 refusing to register an amendment of the bye-laws of a multi-State co-operative society; (c) a decision of a multi-State co-operative society refusing or deemed to be refusing under sub-section (4) of section 25 to admit any person as a member of the society who is otherwise duly qualified for membership under the bye-laws of the society; (d) an order made by the Central Registrar under section 81 apportioning the costs of an inquiry held under section 78 or an inspection made under section 80; (e) an order made by the Central Registrar under sub-section (2) of section 83; (f) an order made by the Central Registrar under section 86 directing the winding up of a multi-State co-operative society; (g) an order made by the liquidator of a multi-State co-operative society under section 90. (2) An appeal against any decision or order under sub-section (1) shall be made within sixty days from the date of such decision or order to the prescribed appellate authority.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, where, with the previous sanction in writing of, or on requisition by, the Reserve Bank, a co-operative bank— (a) is being wound up; or (b) in respect of which a scheme of amalgamation or reorganisation is given effect to, no appeal there against shall lie or be permissible, and the sanction or requisition of the Reserve Bank shall not be liable to be called in question.

(1) The appellate authority referred to in section 99, may, on the application of any party, review its own order in any case and pass in reference thereto such order as it thinks fit: Provided that no such application shall be entertained unless the appellate authority is satisfied that there has been a discovery of new and important matter or evidence which after exercise of due diligence was not within the knowledge of the applicant or could not be produced by him at the time when the order was made or that there has been some mistake or error apparent on the face of the record or for any other sufficient reason: Provided further that no such order shall be made under this sub-section unless notice has been given to all interested parties and they have been afforded a reasonable opportunity of being heard. (2) An application for review under sub-section (1) by any party shall be made within thirty days from the date of communication of the order of the appellate authority sought to be reviewed.

Where an appeal is made under section 99, the appellate authority may, in order to prevent the ends of justice being defeated, make such interlocutory orders, including an order of stay pending the decision of the appeal as such authority may deem fit.
