S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ================== W.P.(C).No. 19415 of 2011 ================== Dated this the 18th day of July, 2011 J U D G M E N T The petitioner challenges proceedings initiated by the respondents for recovery of the loan amounts defaulted by the petitioner to the Kerala State Housing Board. The petitioner does not dispute the liability to pay or the quantum. The petitioner only seeks facility to pay off the amounts due in instalments. 2. This is opposed by the learned counsel for the Housing Board. 3. Taking a lenient view, I dispose of this writ petition with the following directions: The petitioner shall pay the balance amounts due in ten equal monthly instalments starting from 1.8.2011. Every subsequent instalment shall be paid on the first working day of every succeeding month. If the petitioner pays the instalments on the due dates without default, coercive proceedings for recovery of the amounts shall be kept in abeyance. However, if the petitioner commits default in payment of any 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.
