AS TO POINT NO.1:
6. All the documents produced by the plaintiff at list Exhibit-5
to 28 go to establish that plaintiff has supplied goods to the defendants.
The documents further prove that the amount of Rs.94,762/- is due and
payable to the plaintiff company from defendant towards delivered of
goods. But, defendants failed to pay total amount of Rs.94,762/-
towards purchase of goods. The documents at list Exhibit-5 to 28 go to
establish that defendant is liable to pay Rs.1,69,809/- to the plaintiff on
the date of filing of the suit towards the purchase of goods and
therefore the defendant 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.1,69,809/- from the defendant.
7. The plaintiff has claimed 22% 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 22% per annum would
be just and proper to be awarded on the principal sum adjudged i.e.
amount of Rs.1,69,809/-. 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.1,69,809/- from the defendant
-- 5 of 7 --

with interest at the rate of 22% 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 defendant. Hence, in answered to point no.2, I proceed to
pass the following order.
ORDER
1. The defendant shall pay Rs.1,69,809/- (Rs. One Lakh
Sixty Nine Thousand Eight Hundred Nine Only) to the
plaintiff and he shall also pay with interest on
principal amount of Rs.94,762/- at the rate of 22% per
annum from the date of filing of the suit till its
realization.
2. The defendant 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.
