The subsequent instalment shall fall due on the last day of the month after every two months, i.e. 31-5-2010 and 31-7-2010. In case of default in payment of instalment, as directed above, the respondents would be at liberty to recover the entire outstanding amount along with recovery charges in lump-sum. Accordingly, the impugned recovery citation (Annexure-3 to the petition) shall not be given effect to by the respondents. With the said direction, the writ petition is disposed of finally. All pending applications stand disposed of accordingly. (B.S.Verma,J.) RCP
