Judicial, Quasi Judicial

Judicial, quasi judicial, whether an act is a judicial or a quasi-judicial one or a purely executive act depends on the terms of the particular rules and the nature, scope and effect of the particular powers in exercise of which the act may be done and would, therefore, depend on the facts and circumstances of each case. Where an authority is required to act judically either by an express provision of the statute under which it acts or by necessary implication of the said statute the decisions of such an authority generally amount to quasi-judicial decisions. Where, however, the executive or administrative bodies are not required to act judicially and are competent to deal with issues referred to them administratively, their conclusions cannot be treated as quasi-judicial conclusions, Engineering Mazdoor Sabha v.
