The application to set aside the decree was dismissed.
Thereafter an application was made to set aside or recall this order.
In that application this Court by an order dated 28th July, 2006, directed the defendant to furnish a bank guarantee for Rs.8,50,000/- in favour of the Registrar, Original Side of this Court.
This bank guarantee was furnished by the defendant in favour of the Registrar, Original Side.
The bank was Dena Bank.
A term of the bank guarantee provided that in case the bank guarantee was not renewed by the defendant, the bank would deposit the guaranteed amount together with the Registrar’s commission with the Registrar.
In fact the guarantee was not renewed.
Dena Bank did not deposit the guaranteed amount together with the Registrar’s commission not any part thereof.
In this application made by the decree-holder, it is submitted on behalf of Dena Bank that they are prepared to deposit the above sum with the Registrar, Original Side.
I keep this application pending.
I direct Dena Bank to deposit Rs.8,50,000/- together with the Registrar’s commission of Rs.8,500/- with the Registrar, Original Side by 17th October, 2012.
