SC - Right to appeal is neither an absolute right nor an ingredient of natural justice

 Vijay Prakash D. Mehta v. Collector of Customs (1988(4) SCC 402), wherein the  Apex Court observed: 

 "9. Right to appeal is neither an absolute right nor an ingredient of natural justice the principles of which must be followed in all judicial and quasi-judicial adjudications. The right to appeal is a statutory right and it can be circumscribed by the conditions in the grant."

in The Anant Mills Co. Ltd. v. The State of Gujarat (1975(2) SCC 175), it was held that

"...The right of appeal is the creature of a statute. Without a statutory provision creating such a right the person aggrieved is not entitled to file an appeal.

when there is a conflict between the provisions of the Act, Rules and Regulations framed thereunder, the Act will prevail.

 in the matter of National Stock Exchange Member vs. Union of India & Anr.125(2005) DLT 165.

The Delhi High court held that 

when there is a conflict between the provisions of the Act, Rules and Regulations framed thereunder, the Act will prevail. and if there is a conflict between the Act, Rules and Regulations on the one hand, and the circular on the other, the former will prevail and the latter becomes ultra vires

in the matter of M/s. Hiralal Ratanlal vs. STO, AIR 1973 SC 1034, the Apex Court observed:

"In construing a statutory provision the first and foremost rule of construction is the literaly construction. All that the Court has to see at the very outset is what does the provision say. If the provision is unambiguous and if from the provision the legislative intent is clear, the Court need not call into aid the other rules of construction of statutes. The other rules of construction are called into aid only when the legislative intent is not clear."

The Hon‟ble Apex Court in case Prakash Nath Khanna vs. C.I.T. (2004)9 SCC 686 has laid down that the language implies in a statute is the determinative factor of the legislative intent.
