Disposal
Admitted/Allowed/Granted/Rule Absolute

Holding

The court held that the applicants are entitled to withdraw the deposited amount with interest.

Summary

The applicants, Shakilabi Wo Husain Husainali Masuldar and others, filed a civil application seeking permission to withdraw the sum deposited by The National Insurance Company Ltd in the High Court of Bombay, Aurangabad Bench. The application arose from the earlier First Appeal No. 91 of 2025, in which the appeal was dismissed and the insurance company was ordered to deposit the amount as per the impugned judgment and award. The court examined the application and noted that the deposit had been made pursuant to the earlier judgment. The sole issue before the court was whether the applicants could be allowed to withdraw the deposited amount together with accrued interest. Relying on the principle that a party may be permitted to recover money deposited under a court order once the cause of the deposit ceases, the bench permitted the withdrawal. The court ordered that the applicants may withdraw the amount with interest and disposed of the civil application.
