Answer & Explanation:
Rule 28 of NCLT Rules, 2016: Endorsement and scrutiny of petition or appeal or document The person in charge of the filing-counter shall immediately on receipt of petition or appeal or application or document affix the date stamp of NCLT thereon and also on the additional copies of the index and return the acknowledgement to the party and he shall also affix his initials on the stamp affixed on the first page of the copies and enter the particulars of all such documents in the register after daily filing and assign a diary number which shall be entered below the date stamp and thereafter cause it to be sent for scrutiny. If, on scrutiny, the appeal or petition or application or document is found to be defective, such document shall, after notice to the party, to returned for compliance and if there is a failure to comply within seven days from the date of return, the same shall be placed before the Registrar who may pass appropriate orders. The Registrar may for sufficient cause return the said document for rectification or amendment to the party filing the same, and for this purpose may allow to the party concerned such reasonable time as he may consider necessary or extend the time for compliance. Where the party fails to take any step for the removal of the defect within the time fixed for the same, the Registrar may, for reasons to be recorded in writing, decline to register the pleading or document.
