parties have entered into a settlement agreement dated 23.04.2026. A copy of the agreement has also been placed on record. It provides for payment for the sum of Rs. 14,00,000/- by the petitioner to the respondent. Although the agreement is signed on behalf of respondent by his counsel, the respondent is also present on video conference and confirms that the entire sum has been received by him.
