Consequently, the petition is hereby allowed ex- parte and it is hereby ordered that the necessary succession certificate in respect of deposits/debts & securities detailed in para 2 of the petition left behind by late Sh.Sohan Lal Pachisia, be issued in favour of petitioners in equal shares on furnishing requisite indemnity bond with one surety in the like amount and requisite stamp duty.

Aggrieved by the conditions of furnishing the requisite indemnity bond with one surety in the like amount, the petitioners have preferred the instant revision petition, invoking the provisions of Article 227 of the Constitution of Civil Revision No.5500 of 2011 -2- India. 3. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, having gone through the record, the difficulties projected by the learned counsel and after deep consideration over the entire matter, the impugned order (Annexure P1) is modified to the extent that petitioners would furnish only their personal indemnity bond, without any independent surety. However, the other conditions of payment of stamp duty etc., before issuing the indicated succession certificate, are hereby maintained. The present revision petition is disposed of accordingly.
