Reported in: (1994)2CALLT402(HC)

Samir Kumar Mookherjee, J.1. This appeal arises out of a suit, filed by the plaintiff-respondent, for recovery of an amount of Rs. 60 lakhs and odd.

The learned Single Judge, by his judgment dated 21st December, 1993, decreed the suit partly, on admission, for a sum of Rs. 40 lakhs.2. From the impugned judgment and order, it appears that the learned Trial Judge, in granting the prayer of the plaintiff for a decree on admission, relied upon Annexures 'B' to 'J' and Annexure 'M' to the plaintiff's application. On careful reading of the said judgment of the learned Trial Judge, such a decree on admission appears to have been based on the following reasons and findings:-(i) The supplementary agree...
