JUDGMENT
(Dictated and pronounced in Open Court.)
1. This is a summary suit instituted by the plaintiff under
order XXXVII of Code of Civil Procedure 1908 against the defendant.
2. The suit claim of the plaintiff is narrated in nutshell as
under:
The Plaintiff and defendants are acquainted with each other. They
developed good friendship. The defendants approached the plaintiff
representing to him that they are in need of Rs.6,00,000/- for
investment in their business of imitation Jewelllary at their own
premises ie. Shop no. 111/113, Chandani Stree, Bhoiwada, Bhueshwar,
Mumbai. It is agreed that the defendants will repay said amount by
installments of Rs.60,000/- per month and the defendants would induct
the plaintiff as a partner in their business. The defendant no.1 executed
Promissory note to that effect. However, they had no intention to repay
the amount. The plaintiff gave notice by letter dtd. 22.1.2015 calling
upon them to repay his money with profit share which was parted with
based on their false assurances. The defendants measurably failed to
comply with the notice. The plaintiff averred that the defendants are
liable jointly and severally liable to pay the outstanding amount of
Rs.6,00,000/- as per the Promissory Note.

Description of documents
4 Office copy f Notice dtd. 19.12.2015 by the plaintiff
through his advocate to the Deputy Commissioner of
Police
5 Complaint filed by me in the Metropolitan Magistrate
Court, Mumbai alongwith the Order Dtd. 21.7.2017.
AS TO POINT NO.1:
7. This is a summary suit which is not contested by the
defendants. The plaintiff has produced various documents on record.
Further, he has filed affidavit regarding service of writ of summons to
the defendants. None appeared. The documents produced on record
by the plaintiff shows that the defendants received the amount of
Rs.6,00,000/- from the plaintiff drawing the Promissory Note in which
the defendants agreed to pay sum of Rs.6,00,000/- with profit at the
rate of 10% per month i.e Rs.60,000/- per month to the plaintiff.
Further, it reveals from the record the said transaction took place on
dtd.4.11.2013, the notice/letter of demand was issued to the
defendants on dtd. 22.1.2015 and the suit is filed on 25.01.2018. As
such, the plaintiff’s claim in the suit is well within limitation.
8. All the documents produced by the plaintiff at list Exhibit-
03 goes to establish that plaintiff has given amount of Rs.6,00,000/- to
the defendants on Promissory Note. Said amount is not repaid either by
the defendant no.1 or by defendant no.2. Neither they paid the
principal amount nor the profit. The plaintiff has claimed the principal
amount only to which he is legally entitled by virtue of the Promissory
note dtd. 4.11.2013. Hence, I hold that both the defendants are liable

jointly and severally to pay the outstanding amount of Rs.6,00,000/- to
the plaintiff. In this background, I have arrived at the conclusion that
the plaintiff is entitled to recover sum of Rs.6,00,000/- from the
defendants jointly and severally. Hence, point no.1 is answered in the
affirmative.
AS TO POINT NO.2:
10. In view of discussion and finding on point no.1, it is held
that the plaintiff is entitled to recover Rs.6,00,000/-from the defendant
nos. 1 and 2 jointly and severally. Plaintiff is also entitled to recover cost
of the suit from the defendants. Hence, in answered to point no.2, I
proceed to pass the following order.
ORDER
1. The defendant nos.1 and 2 shall pay Rs.6,00,000/-
(Rs. Six Lakhs only) to the plaintiff jointly and
severally.
2. The defendant nos. 1 and 2 do pay costs of the suit to
the plaintiff.
3. Court fee, if any, be refunded as per the rules.
4. Decree be drawn accordingly.
