J U D G M E N T
(Exparte)
This is a suit for recovery of Rs.2,30,000/ with interest.
2. In short, plaintiff came with a case that, plaintiff is a registered
company registered under the Indian Companies Act, 1956. Plaintiff
duly authorized Mr.Roshan Warang by resolution dt.15.01.2018 to file
this suit against defendant. Defendant is a private limited company
registered under Companies Act,1956 and manufacturer and exporter
of Bed Linen Cloth.
3. Plaintiff submitted that, proprietor of defendant Mr.Ramesh
Chandra Sharam visited the plaintiff in the month of March,2017
through broker Mr.Prakash Bav and made his offer to accept the
purchase order in respect of fancy cloth at competitive price prevailing
market to plaintiff. Plaintiff also keeping faith on defendant and placed
the purchase order of Rs.2,00,000/ and as per understanding between
the parties deposited advance payment through N.E.F.T. in defendant's
account on 10.04.2017. However, in spite of receipt of payment
defendant failed to supply the goods and sought time, but never
delivered the goods.
4. Plaintiff submitted that, they realized that defendant has
malfiedly deceived it by giving inducement of competitive price.
Therefore, plaintiff visited the office of defendant in the month of
August,2017 and asked them to return the advance amount. Therefore,
for repayment defendant issued cheque bearing No.000570
dt.08.08.20017 for Rs.Two Lakh. However, said cheque was

.. j/3 .. Summary Suit No.314/2018
dishonoured when presented in the bank for encashment. Thereafter,
plaintiff repeatedly called upon defendant to pay the outstanding
amount. But defendant failed and neglected to pay the same.
Therefore, plaintiff filed this suit against defendant for recovery of
outstanding due amount.
5. Writ of summons of this suit served upon defendant. Affidavit of
service is filed at Exh.5. In spite of service none on behalf of defendant
has appeared to contest the suit. Hence, suit proceeded exparte
against defendant.
6. In support of his claim plaintiff tendered affidavit of evidence at
Exh.7 and list of document at Exh.8 and proved the following
documents :

8. No doubt on representation of defendant, plaintiff has placed the
order and deposited Rs.Two Lakhs in the account of defendant. But
-- 3 of 6 --
.. j/4 .. Summary Suit No.314/2018
defendant has not supplied the material as agreed and represented.
Such fact is proved when proprietor of defendant assured plaintiff to
repay the said advance amount by giving post dated cheque, which was
dishonoured when presented in the bank. Therefore, now, it is the
legal liability of defendant to return the said amount. But in spite of
repeated requests made by plaintiff, defendant has not made the
payment.
9. In spite of service of writ of this suit noen on behalf of defendant
appeared to contest the suit. Therefore, documents submitted by
plaintiff remain uncontroverted and unchallenged. Hence, claim put
forth by plaintiff remain unchallenged and unrebutted. Therefore, suit
filed by plaintiff for recovery under O.XXXVII R.2 of C.P.C. needs to be
accepted. Defendant neither present nor rebutted the claim of plaintiff.
Which clearly establishes the claim of plaintiff and therefore, plaintiff is
entitled to recover amount advanced to defendant along with interest
@ 18% per annum. In spite of repeated demand and opportunity
defendant has not paid the amount. Therefore, costs of this suit needs
to be saddled on defendant.
10. The suit remains unchallenged and undefended. Therefore,
under partIII, R(E), schedule I of Bombay City Civil & Sessions Court
Rule, 1948 plaintiff becomes entitled for refund of 2/3rd court fee
voucher, if prayed. In the result, suit deserves to be decreed with costs.
Hence, I proceed to pass the following order :
O R D E R
1. Suit is decreed with costs.
2. Defendant do pay Rs.2,30,000/ along with interest
@ 18 % per annum on principal outstanding amount to
-- 4 of 6 --

plaintiff from the date of filing of this suit till realization
of entire decreetal amount.
3. Defendant do bear their own costs with costs of
plaintiff.
4. Decree be drawn up accordingly.
5. The 2/3rd Court fee refund voucher, as per rule, be
