ORDERC.V.N. Sastri, J.1. This Civil Revision Petition is directed against the order passed by the lower Court overruling the objections raised by the petitioners-judgment-debtors to the memo of calculation filed by the respondent-decree holder and accepting the same as correct.2. Sri A.V. Sivaiah, learned Counsel for the petitioners-judgment debtors contends that the appropriation of several payments made by the petitioners from time to time has not been properly made by the respondent-decree-holder and that the payments have to be appropriated towards the principal and not interest.

Mst. Bayabai, : [1970]1SCR523 and M. Matthai v. Hindustan Organic Chemica...
