                 ====================

             Dated this the 3rd day of October, 2007

                          J U D G M E N T

The proceedings initiated against the petitioner under the

Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and

Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 is under challenge.

There does not appear to be any dispute in the liability or the

quantum. All that the petitioner now seeks is an instalment

facility to discharge the liability.

2. I heard the learned standing counsel for the

respondent Bank, who insists that substantial payment should be

made immediately by the petitioner.

3. Having considered the submissions made by both

sides, I dispose of this writ petition directing that before

15/10/2007, petitioner shall make a payment of Rs.1,00,000/-,

(Rupees One lakh) and on receipt of that payment, the Bank will

intimate the petitioner the balance amount due. On receipt of

such intimation, the balance so informed shall be paid by the

WPC 28929/07
: 2 :

petitioner in three equal monthly instalments. This shall be

payable on the 15th of November 2007, December 2007 and

January 2008.

4. Subject to compliance with these conditions,

proceedings initiated against the petitioner will stand deferred. If

the petitioner commits default in payment of any one of the

instalments, the Bank will be entitled to proceed without further

notice.

Writ petition is disposed of as above.

ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE.
