you will hv to file an appeal before the high court along with an application to seek permission to file board resolution now. The supreme court in 2005 SCC has held that not filing of board resolution is not fatal to the complaint, The board resolution may be filed at any stage.

Instead of appeal in DRT or HIGH COURT, you may be entitled to pursue your remedy for recovery by filing a suit in civil courts. 138 is not a substitute of civil suit for recovery.
