Holding
The Court held that 70% of the deposited amount may be released on an undertaking with interest, and the remaining 30% on a satisfactory surety, and that the delay in filing the first appeal is condoned.
Summary
The Administrator CIDCO (Acquiring Body) deposited Rs.1,18,70,800/- as directed by the Bombay High Court and sought to withdraw the amount. The Court noted that the Respondent, Radhabai Prabhulal Jaiswal, had only deposited 70% of the amount as per earlier orders, and the Court’s established practice is to release 70% of the deposited sum upon an undertaking, with the remaining 30% released upon furnishing a solvent surety. Accordingly, the Court partially allowed the withdrawal application, permitting 70% of the amount with interest on an undertaking and the balance on a satisfactory surety. The Acquiring Body also applied for condonation of a 154‑day delay in filing a first appeal, which was unopposed and granted. The Court confirmed the interim stay previously granted and disposed of the civil applications.
Issues considered
- The appropriate quantum of deposited amount that can be released to the applicant upon furnishing an undertaking.
- Whether the balance amount can be released upon furnishing a solvent surety/security.
- Whether the delay of 154 days in preferring the first appeal can be condoned.
Subjects
- withdrawal of deposited amount
- partial release
- surety
- delay condonation
