AS TO POINT NO.1: 6. All the documents produced by the plaintiff at list Exhibit-4 to 12 go to establish that plaintiff has supplied goods to the defendants. The documents further prove that the amount of Rs.1,30,712/- is due and payable to the plaintiff company from defendants towards delivered of goods. After lot of persuasion and follow up defendants have made part payment of Rs.84,773/-. As per the plaintiff’s sales ledger now sum of Rs.45,939/-is due and payable by defendants to plaintiff. Now plaintiff is to receive from defendants the amount of Rs.66,021/- alongwith interest upto date. The documents at list Exhibit 4 to 12 go to establish that defendants are liable to pay Rs.66,021/- to the plaintiff on the date of filing of the suit towards the purchase of goods alongwith interest. In this background, it is held that plaintiff is entitled to recover sum of Rs.66,021/- from the defendants. 7. The plaintiff has claimed 18% per annum on the principal amount. As per section 34 of the Code of Civil Procedure the rate of interest may exceed 6% per annum, if the transaction is commercial and -- 4 of 6 -- Summ. Suit No.611/2019 5 there is no contract pertaining to the same between the parties. In the present case the transaction is a commercial one and there is contract existing between the parties as to the rate of interest which shall be levied. Therefore, rate of interest at the rate of 18% per annum would be just and proper to be awarded on the principal sum adjudged i.e. amount of Rs.66,021/-. Hence, point no.1 is answered in the affirmative. AS TO POINT NO.2: 8. In view of discussion and finding on point no.1, it is held that the plaintiff is entitled to recover Rs.66,021/- from the defendants with interest on Rs.45,939/- at the rate of 18% per annum from the date of filing of the suit till its realization. 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 shall pay Rs.66,021/- (Rs. Sixty Six Thousand Twenty One Only) to the plaintiff and defendant shall also pay with interest on principal amount of Rs.45,939/- at the rate of 18% per annum from the date of filing of the suit till its realization. 2.
