A division bench of justices V M Kanade and Shalini Phansalkar-Joshi was hearing a petition filed by Khar resident Sumeer Sabharwal terming the raids as "illegal, intrusive and unconstitutional" and seeking action against the police officials concerned.
The petition sought investigation by an independent agency into the incident and for it to be monitored by the high court.
Public prosecutor Sandeep Shinde today sought time to take instructions and justify the police action.
The court issued notice to all the respondents, including Maharashtra Home Minister, a portfolio currently held by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
