On 03.06.2018, the defendant executed a Demand

AS TO POINT NO.1 :-
6. All the documents produced by the plaintiff at Exh.No.7 to
11 goes to establish that plaintiff has given amount of Rs.1,00,000/-to
the defendant. The documents further prove that the amount of
Rs.1,24,904.10ps is due and payable to the plaintiff from defendant
towards the amount. The defendant have failed to repay the said
amount to the plaintiff. The documents at Exh No.7 to 11 goes to
-- 3 of 6 --
4 Sum. Suit No.1138/2019
establish that the defendant is liable to pay Rs.1,24,904.10ps to the
plaintiff on the date of filing of the suit towards the said amount and
therefore, the defendant have failed to repay the said amount to the
plaintiff. In this background, it is held that plaintiff is entitled to recover
sum of Rs.1,24,904.10ps from the defendant.
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 exceeds 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 commercial one and there is
contract existing between the parties as to the rate of interest which
shall be levied. Therefore, the transaction is a commercial one and rate
of interest @ 18% per annum would be just and proper to be awarded
on the principal sum adjudged i.e. amount of Rs.1,24,904.10ps. 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 plaintiff is entitled to recover Rs.1,24,904.10ps from the defendant
with interest on principal amount of Rs.1,00,000/- 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 defendants. Hence, in
answered to point No.2, I proceed to pass the following order.
O R D E R

Twenty Four Thousand Nine Hundred Four and Ten Paise
Only) to the plaintiff with interest on principal amount of
