To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Mr.B.S.Walia,Advocate for the appellants Mr.Anurag Jain, Advocate for the respondent **** RAKESH KUMAR GARG J.(ORAL): This is defendants' second appeal challenging the judgment and decrees of the courts below whereby suit of the plaintiff-respondent for recovery has been decreed along with future interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The only contention raised by the learned counsel for the appellants before this Court in this appeal is that the courts below could not have granted future interest more than 6% per annum on the decretal amount. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent has supported the impugned judgment and decree. However, keeping in view the meager difference in the rate of interest which is in dispute, an effort was made for amicable settlement between the parties. RSA No.4878 of 2009 2 At this stage, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent has brought to the notice of this court that in spite of the fact that execution is pending before the Executing Court, the appellant is not appearing before the executing Court and therefore he is not entitled to any relief. However, learned counsel for the appellant has stated before this Court that the appellant shall appear before the Executing court. With the help of learned counsel for the parties, consensus has been reached that let the impugned decree be modified to the extent that future interest on the decretal amount be paid at the rate of 6% per annum instead of 8%. Thus, this appeal is disposed of with the aforesaid modification in the rate of future interest as amicably settled. (RAKESH KUMAR GARG) JUDGE 05.04.2010 neenu
