All the documents produced by the plaintiff at list Exhibit-6 to 11 goes to establish that plaintiff has supplied goods to the defendants. The documents further prove that the amount of Rs.49,035/- is due and payable to the plaintiff company from defendants towards delivered of goods. But, defendants failed to pay total amount of Rs.49,035/-towards purchase of goods. The documents at list Exhibit-6 to 11 goes to establish that defendants is liable to pay Rs.74,099/- to the plaintiff on the date of filing of the suit towards the purchase of goods and therefore the defendants is avoid to pay the balance amount to the plaintiff. In this background, it is held that plaintiff is entitled to recover sum of Rs.74,099/- 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 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.74,099/-.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.74,099/- from the defendants with interest on Rs.49,035/- at the rate of 18% per annum from the -- 4 of 6 -- Summ.
