As It Deems Fit

Legal definition for Indian law research

Definition

As it deems fit, the expression 'as it deems fit' has been used but in view of the fact that civil consequences would ensue by reason thereof, the same must be exercised fairly and bona fide. The discretion so exercised is subject to appeal as also judicial review, and, thus, must also answer the test of reasonableness, Clariant International Ltd. v. Securities and Exchange Board of India, (2004) 8 SCC 524 (539): AIR 2004 SC 4236.

Definitions are for legal research. Always verify meaning in the context of the statute, judgment, or jurisdiction cited.
