A Similar question is raised by Mr.Samant in 2 2 2 this matter, and that is, while passing an award by decree, the Tribunal has awarded 6% interest from the date of application till realisation.

This point was decided by Justice Kochar in his Judgment dated 27.2.2002 in Writ Petition No.177 of 2002 and Mr.Samant states that this judgment of the Single Bench was upheld by the Division Bench (Khandeparkar and Mohata, JJ.) so far as interest is concerned in LPA No.74 of 2003 decided on 16.6.2005.
