Vide this judgment, I shall decide the suit for permanent injunction filed by the plaintiff against the defendants. Pleadings of the plaintiff:- 2. The plaintiff has instituted the present suit seeking a decree of permanent injunction in respect of property bearing House No. A-34/2, Gali No. 1, Khasra No. 26-27, Main Road, Brahampuri, Delhi, admeasuring 50 square yards, forming part of Khasra No. 26-27, situated in the area of Village Ghonda, abadi known as Gali No. 1, Main Road, Brahampuri, Delhi (hereinafter referred CS No. 70/2025 Priya Gupta Vs. Sh. Aakash Gupta Page No 2 of 6 -- 2 of 6 -- to as “the suit property”). 3. It is the case of the plaintiff that his father, late Sh. Surender Kumar Gupta, was the owner and landlord of the suit property, having purchased the same on the strength of sale documents executed in his favour. The mother of the plaintiff, Smt. Mamta Devi Gupta, had expired earlier on 21.06.2012, and thereafter, the father of the plaintiff also expired on 18.04.2020. Upon the demise of his parents, the plaintiff, along with the other legal heirs, succeeded to the estate left behind by his late father, which includes the suit property. 4. The grievance of the plaintiff is that after the death of his father, defendants no. 1 and 2, who have been residing in the suit property, started asserting hostile claims over the same and attempted to sell the suit property without the consent of the plaintiff and without giving him his lawful share. The plaintiff contends that no partition has taken place amongst the legal heirs in respect of the suit property, and therefore, the defendants cannot claim any exclusive right or proceed to alienate the same. 5. On these averments, the plaintiff has approached this Court seeking a decree of permanent injunction restraining the defendants from selling, transferring, alienating or creating any third-party interest in the suit property. CS No. 70/2025 Priya Gupta Vs. Sh. Aakash Gupta Page No 3 of 6 -- 3 of 6 -- Ex parte evidence: - 6. In ex-parte PE, to prove her case, plaintiff deposed as PW1. Plaintiff tendered her ex-parte evidence by way of affidavit as Ex. PW1/1 wherein she reiterated the facts mentioned in plaint and relied upon following documents:- 1. Copy of Aadhar Card of plaintiff Ex. PW1/A (OSR). 2. Copy of Voter ID of plaintiff Ex. PW 1/B (OSR) 3. Site plan Ex. PW1/C 4. Copy of Electricity Bill Mark ‘A’ 7. Thereafter, ex-parte PE was closed vide order dated 06.08.2025 and matter was listed for ex-parte final arguments. 8. I have heard the ex-parte final arguments on behalf of the plaintiff and perused the record. Decision with reasons:- 9. In the case in hand, plaintiff is seeking a relief of permanent injunction against the defendants that the defendants be restrained from creating any third party interest in the suit party. They be directed not to disposes the plaintiff without following due process of law. 10. It is a settled position of law that when defendants are proceeded ex parte, the Court is duty-bound to assess whether the CS No. 70/2025 Priya Gupta Vs. Sh. Aakash Gupta Page No 4 of 6 -- 4 of 6 -- plaintiff has been able to make out a case on the basis of her pleadings and unrebutted evidence. 11. In the present case, the testimony of PW1 has gone unrebutted and unchallenged as no cross-examination has been carried out by the defendants. The affidavit Ex. PW1/1, coupled with the supporting documents, establishes that the plaintiff is one of the legal heirs of late Sh. Surender Kumar Gupta, who was the purchaser/owner of the suit property. 12. The defendants have not appeared to contest the claim nor to deny the allegation that they are attempting to alienate the property without partition or consent of the plaintiff. Thus, the plaintiff’s apprehension appears to be bona fide and supported by evidence. 13. It is also settled law that every co-owner has a right to protect the property from unlawful alienation by another co- owner. Injunction can be granted to preserve the property till the rights of the parties are properly determined. Reference may be made to Anathula Sudhakar vs. P. Buchi Reddy (2008) 4 SCC 594, wherein the Hon’ble Supreme Court held that an injunction suit is maintainable to restrain threatened unlawful alienation or dispossession. 14. In view of the unrebutted testimony of the plaintiff, the CS No. 70/2025 Priya Gupta Vs. Sh. Aakash Gupta Page No 5 of 6 -- 5 of 6 -- documentary evidence on record, and in the absence of any defence from the defendants, I am of the considered opinion that the plaintiff has successfully established her entitlement to relief. RELIEF 15. In view of the above, the suit of plaintiff is hereby allowed in favour of plaintiff and against the defendants whereby defendants are hereby restrained from creating any third party interest in the suit party and dispossess the plaintiff from the suit property without following the due process of law. No order as to cost. 16. Decree sheet be prepared accordingly. 17. File be consigned to record room after due compliance.
