CORAM : A. K. MENON, J.
DATE : 24th FEBRUARY, 2021. P.C. :
1. The interim application is moved for urgent ad-interim relief in
view of the breach committed by respondent - judgment debtor in
complying with order dated 24 th November, 2020 whereby judgment
debtor was to pay a sum of Rs.1,13,52,727/- on or before 31 st January,
2021. It is stated now across the bar by applicant that a sum of Rs.70
21-IAL-4112-2021-COMEXL-4109-2021.doc rrpillai lakhs was paid on 17th February, 2021 and Rs. 30 lakhs was paid only
today 24th February, 2021. Thus the respondent has obviously failed to
comply with the dead line provided in paragraph 7 making them liable
to pay simple interest @ 15% on the entire amount of Rs.1,13,52,727/-
from 24th November, 2020.
2. On behalf of judgment debtor, some relaxation is sought in the
rate of interest. On behalf of the judgment creditor the learned counsel
is unwilling to grant any further concession. She submits that the
attachment of assets will have to be proceeded with. However, the
respondent has not disclosed any of their assets. The applicant has no
knowledge of the current assets and hence Ms. Barfiwala seeks ad-
interim relief in terms of prayer clause (a). In my view considering the
delay in payment, interest will have to be paid and can be recovered by
attaching and selling properties of the respondent. The applicant are
therefore entitled to relief. Accordingly I pass the following order :
(i) There will be ad-interim relief in terms of prayer clause (a) which
is reproduced below:
(a) That this Hon'ble Court may be pleased to direct the
Respondents to disclose on oath all their assets and properties,
moveable and immoveable, secured and unsecured, shares, stock
in trade, bank accounts, savings, financial investments, including
21-IAL-4112-2021-COMEXL-4109-2021.doc rrpillai but not limited to assets, bonds, govt securities, or otherwise
along with the names and addresses of such banks and such
other particulars, and other assets along with their last audited
balance sheets for the last three years / statements of income,
within the time limit prescribed by this Hon'ble Court;
(ii) Prior order of injunction shall continue to operate till further
orders.
(iii) Reply and disclosure to be filed within two weeks from today.
(iv) Liberty to apply after reply is filed and after proceeding in
execution.
