Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 17946 of 2011 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 4th day of July, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioner is aggrieved by proceedings for recovery of loan amounts taken by the petitioner from the 1st respondent bank. The petitioner does not dispute the liability or quantum. The petitioner only seeks a facility to pay the amount in instalments. This is opposed by the counsel for the bank. However, taking a lenient view, I dispose of this writ petition with the following directions: The petitioner shall pay 50% of the amount within one month. The balance amount shall be paid in 3 equal monthly instalments starting from 1.9.2011. Every subsequent instalment shall be paid on the first working day of every succeeding month. If the petitioner pays the amount on the due dates without default, further coercive recovery proceedings shall be kept in abeyance. However, if the petitioner commits default in payment of any one instalment, it would be open to the respondent to continue proceedings as now initiated, without having to issue any fresh notice or proceedings in that regard.
