CORAM CORAM CORAM : ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. : ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. : ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. DATED DATED DATED : 4th June, 2008 : 4th June, 2008 : 4th June, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C.:- . This appeal is at limited issue that the awarded interest ought to have been granted from the date of filing of the suit. However, it has been granted from the date of the decision of the suit @ 9% p.a.. Considering the nature of dispute with regard to the personal injuries, I am of the view that the interest should have been granted from the date of the suit. I am modifying the Judgment and decree to the extent that the rate of interest of 9% be calculated from the date of the suit i.e. from 31/10/1977. The Judgment and decree will be modified accordingly. 2. In view of this, the appeal is partly allowed. . No costs. ( 2 ) [ANOOP [ANOOP [ANOOP V. MOHTA, J.] V. MOHTA, J.] V. MOHTA, J.]
