Mere Typographical error in demand notice would not invalidate recovery proceedings Initiated by Union Bank of India: DRT

The Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) has ruled that a mere typographical error in a demand notice would not invalidate recovery proceedings initiated by Union Bank of India. This decision clarifies that minor, non-substantive errors in official documents do not automatically render legal processes void, especially if the intent and substance of the notice are clear. The DRT likely found that despite the typo, the borrower was sufficiently informed of the outstanding debt and the bank's intention to recover it. This ruling supports banks in their debt recovery efforts, preventing debtors from exploiting minor technicalities to evade financial obligations.
