[TRUE COPY] P.S TO JUDGE. S. Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 24993 of 2010 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 12th day of August, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioner challenges recovery proceedings initiated by the 1st respondent through the revenue recovery machinery of the State for recovery of chitty loan amounts due from the petitioner. The petitioner now seeks instalment facility to pay off the balance amounts due. This is opposed by the counsel for the 1st respondent. However, taking a lenient view, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to permit the petitioner to pay off the balance amounts due in 6 equal monthly instalments starting from 1.10.2011. Every subsequent instalment shall be paid on the first working day of every succeeding month. If the petitioner pays the instalment amounts on due dates without default, 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 respondents to continue recovery proceedings without having to issue any fresh notice or proceedings in that regard.
