Pursuant to the aforesaid representations & assurances and considering the same to be true, plaintiff supplied goods to the defendant from time to time as per its requirements and demands under distinct invoices. It is averred that the delivery of goods so supplied by the plaintiff to the defendant was duly obtained and accepted by the defendant well in order without any protest and/or complaint. It is stated that after having procured the delivery of goods from the plaintiff, the defendant defaulted in making timely payment of the dues to the plaintiff.

It is stated that as per the ledger account statement as maintained by the plaintiff concerning the defendant, the principal amount of Rs. 43,964/- remains unpaid and outstanding against the defendant till date.

However, the defendant failed to appear despite service, therefore, was proceeded ex-parte vide order dated 30.05.2026 and the plaintiff was directed to bring ex-parte evidence. 4. Sh. Naresh Bansal, SPA holder of plaintiff examined as PW1 who in his evidence by way of affidavit Ex.PW1/A has reiterated and reaffirmed the averments made in the plaint. He has relied upon the following documents : (a) Copy of GSTIN details of plaintiff is Ex.PW1/1; (b) SPA dt. 11.12.2025 is Ex.PW1/2; (c) Copy of GSTIN details of defendant is Ex.PW1/3; (d) Copy of invoices alongwith respective e-way bills is Ex.PW1/4 (colly) to Ex.PW1/8 (colly); (e) Copy of ledger account is Ex.PW1/9; (f) Screenshot of GST portal is Ex.PW1/10(colly); (g) Certificate u/s 63 (4) (c) of BSA, 2023 is Ex.PW1/11 and Ex.PW1/12. 5. I have heard the plaintiff and perused the material available on record carefully. 6. Before giving findings on the evidence led by plaintiff and submissions advanced on behalf of plaintiff, it is important to note that in the present case, the defendant has never appeared and was proceeded ex-parte vide order dated 30.05.2026. It is further noted that the Court is mindful of the fact that in cases where the defendant is ex-parte, the Court needs to be extra CS SCJ No. 81/2026 Sunita Bansal v. Chenaram Ukaram Choudhary 4 of 7 -- 4 of 7 -- cautious, as it would not have the advantage of defence pointing out the defect in the case of plaintiff and before passing the judgment, the pleadings and evidence of the plaintiff should be weighed carefully before arriving at the finding as to whether the plaintiff has made out a case for a decree. The initial burden to prove the averments of the plaintiff rests entirely upon the plaintiff who has to discharge the said burden as per law. In civil litigation, it is sufficient for the plaintiff to prove its case by preponderance of probabilities. In Adiveppa V. Bhimappa (2017) 9 SCC 586, Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has observed that: “It is a settled principle of law that the initial burden is always on the plaintiff to prove his case by proper pleadings and adequate evidence (oral and documentary) in support thereof.” Thus, the burden to prove the case as per law entirely is upon the plaintiff, by way of documentary and oral evidence. 7. PW-1 has proved on oath the allegations against the defendant and the evidence produced by the plaintiff goes on unchallenged and un-rebutted. Copy of GSTIN details of plaintiff is Ex.PW1/1; SPA dt. 11.12.2025 is Ex.PW1/2; Copy of GSTIN details of defendant is Ex.PW1/3; Copy of invoices alongwith respective e-way bills is Ex.PW1/4 (colly) to Ex.PW1/8 (colly); Copy of ledger account is Ex.PW1/9; Screenshot of GST portal is Ex.PW1/10(colly); Certificate u/s 63 (4) (c) of BSA, 2023 is Ex.PW1/11 and Ex.PW1/12. Point for determination CS SCJ No. 81/2026 Sunita Bansal v. Chenaram Ukaram Choudhary 5 of 7 -- 5 of 7 -- 8. The present suit is filed on 16.01.2026 and has been filed within the prescribed period of limitation as per provisions of Limitation Act. Plaintiff has proved all the documents i.e. invoices/account statements for supplying of goods by plaintiff to the defendant (which were supplied at the direction of defendant) and the fact that defendant has not made payment of same to the plaintiff. As defendant has not turned up despite service and accordingly was proceeded ex-parte, the averments made in the plaint and the testimony of the plaintiff during PE remained unrebutted. There is no reason to disbelief the unrebutted testimony of PW1 and the documents relied upon him. These documents coupled with testimony of the plaintiff prove the case of the plaintiff. Relief 9. In view of the reasons given above and uncontroverted evidence brought on record, the suit of the plaintiff is decreed and following reliefs are granted in her favour and against the defendant :- i. Decree for a sum of Rs. 43,964/- (Rupees Forty Three Thousand Nine Hundred and Sixty Four Only). ii.
