The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that an order was passed on 14.10.2017 by the court below, allowing the application filed by the petitioners, to set aside the ex-parte order dated 14.07.2017 in the suit, on payment of cost. The said application was posted on 30.10.2017 for reporting compliance.
