As per the said judgment, the Court has reduced the future interest and find it 6% p.a. on the principal amount from the date of decree till the date of realization as against the interest at 18% p.a. granted by the Court below. 3 . Since the judgment under appeal has already been confirmed by this court in A.S.No.467 of 2007, to which the present appellants are also parties, they are bound by the said judgment and decree and consequently the appeal fails. But, however, the plaintiff is entitled to the same benefit of the payment of interest at 6% p.a. as ordered by this Court in A.S.No.467 of 2007. 4. Accordingly, the Appeal Suit is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this Appeal Suit shall stand closed. No costs. ________________________ N.R.L. NAGESWARA RAO, J Dated: 22.02.2013 Vvr
