D. Lotlikar, Senior Advocate with Ms. Shambhavi Dessai, advocate for the appellant. Shri M. B. D’Costa, Srnior Advocate with Shri J. A. Lobo, advocate for the respondent. CORAM : D. G. KARNIK, J. DATE : 1st April, 2004 P.C. Heard learned counsel for the appellant. Learned counsel for the appellant restricts the challenge to the rate of interest awarded by the trial Court and confirmed by the Appellate Court. The learned counsel also invited my attention to the Judgment of the trial Court wherein there is no discussion as to how the learned Judge fixed the rate of interest at 18% per annum. The learned counsel points out that there is no evidence to show that normal rate of interest for lending by the Commercial Banks was 18% and - 2 - hence the learned Judge erred in awarding interest at the rate of 18% per annum. This question does not involve any substantial question of law. Hence the Second Appeal is dismissed. D. G. KARNIK, J. mc.
