Recently, the Kerala High Court [in the case of Dhanik Karam Sarathi vs. Vaikom Sahakarana Bank Ltd] dealing with a case for which administrative remedy had been exhausted, once again makes it very clear that the permission sought under the Article 227 of the Constitution for exercising supervisory jurisdiction is not to be mistaken as appellate or revisional jurisdiction, it must be exercised sparingly - in a case of obvious error or wrong leading to gross injustice. The defendant did not perform their contractual obligation, the High Court held. The Court refused to interfere with the order of Trial Court and dismissed the petition, stressing that Article 227 cannot be employed as an appellate or revisional power
