TO JUDGE Mn S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.27352 OF 2011 ---------------------------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of October, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioners challenge proceedings under the Revenue Recovery Act initiated by the respondents for recovery of the loan amounts due from the petitioners to the respondents. The petitioners do not dispute the liability to pay or the quantum. The petitioners only seek facility to pay off the amounts due in instalments. 2. This is opposed by the learned counsel for the KSFE. However, taking a lenient view, I dispose of this writ petition with the following directions: The respondents shall permit the petitioners to pay off the balance amount due in twelve equal monthly instalments starting from 1.11.2011. Every subsequent instalment shall be paid on the first working day of every succeeding month. If the petitioners pay the instalments on due dates without default, further proceedings under the Act shall be kept in abeyance. W.P.(C)No.27352/11 2 However, if the petitioners commit default in payment of any one of the instalments, it would be open to the respondents to continue proceedings as now initiated without having to issue any fresh notice or proceedings in that regard. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE acd W.P.(C)No.27352/11 3
