Sale deed was<\/p>\n<p>stipulated to be got registered on 9.1.2007.<\/p>\n<p>           The plaintiff&#8217;s case is that the plaintiff has always<\/p>\n<p>been ready and willing to perform his part of the contract but the<\/p>\n<p>defendants started backing out of the same.           Since date<\/p>\n<p>stipulated in the agreement for execution of sale deed had not<\/p>\n<p>expired, the plaintiff filed suit vide plaint dated 29.09.2006,<\/p>\n<p>Annexure    P-7,   for   permanent   injunction   restraining   the<\/p>\n<p>defendants from alienating any part of the suit property and from<\/p>\n<p>removing any iron, machinery, scrap, trees etc. therefrom.<\/p>\n<p>Temporary injunction to the same effect till final disposal of the<\/p>\n<p>suit was claimed by the plaintiff by moving application under<\/p>\n<p>Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 read with Section 151 CPC.<\/p>\n<p>           The defendants in the reply to the application<\/p>\n<p>admitted the execution of agreement, Annexure P-1,              and<\/p>\n<p>receipt of Rs.1 crore as earnest money.           The defendants,<\/p>\n<p>however, pleaded that the said agreement was cancelled and<\/p>\n<p>earnest money in full was refunded to the plaintiff. A sum of<\/p>\n<p>Rs.74 lacs was allegedly received by the plaintiff vide undated<\/p>\n<p>receipt Annexure P-10 and another sum of Rs.36 lacs was<\/p>\n<p>received by him shortly thereafter vide receipt dated 7.07.2006,<\/p>\n<p>Annexure P-11 and thus the agreement stood cancelled.<\/p>\n<p>           Both the Courts below did not accept the plaintiff&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>version.   Feeling aggrieved, the plaintiff has filed the instant<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> Civil Revision No.6886 of 2006 (O &amp; M)                   -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>revision petition.\n<\/p>\n<p>           I have heard learned counsel for the parties and<\/p>\n<p>perused the case file.\n<\/p>\n<p>           Before proceeding further, it has to be noticed that<\/p>\n<p>during pendency of the suit, the plaint has been amended and<\/p>\n<p>the plaintiff has also claimed relief of specific performance of the<\/p>\n<p>agreement Annexure P-1.          It is also to be noticed that<\/p>\n<p>documents Annexure P-10 and Annexure P-11 relied on by the<\/p>\n<p>defendants referr to two agreements i.e agreement Annexure P-<\/p>\n<p>1 for sale M\/s Kartar Glass Company and also another<\/p>\n<p>agreement between the parties for sale of assets of M\/s Mangla<\/p>\n<p>Cotex Ltd. situated about 20 Kms from Ludhiana on Chandigarh-<\/p>\n<p>Ludhiana road. Vide said other agreement dated 1.05.2006, the<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff paid Rs.60 lacs as earnest money to the defendants for<\/p>\n<p>purchasing the assets of M\/s Mangla Cotex Ltd. for Rs.8 crores.<\/p>\n<p>Vide documents Annexure P10 and Annexure P-11, both the<\/p>\n<p>agreements are said to have been cancelled.\n<\/p>\n<p>           Learned counsel for the petitioner at the outset,<\/p>\n<p>relying on judgment of Hon&#8217;ble Apex Court in the case of Surya<\/p>\n<p>Dev Rai versus Ram Chander Rai and others AIR 2003<\/p>\n<p>Supreme Court 3044, contended that power of superintendence<\/p>\n<p>of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India is<\/p>\n<p>much wider than the revisional power of this Court under Section<\/p>\n<p>115 CPC. There is no quarrel with this proposition.<\/p>\n<p>           Learned    counsel   for   the   petitioner   vehemently<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> Civil Revision No.6886 of 2006 (O &amp; M)                 -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>contended that agreement between the parties stands admitted,<\/p>\n<p>but the alleged cancellation thereof, vide documents Annexure<\/p>\n<p>P10 and Annexure P-11, cannot be accepted.                There is<\/p>\n<p>considerable force in the contention. Document Annexure P-10<\/p>\n<p>purports to be receipt which is undated, but scribed on stamp<\/p>\n<p>papers worth Rs.50\/- plus Rs.50\/- purchased on 27.03.2006.<\/p>\n<p>           Learned counsel for the respondents contended that<\/p>\n<p>this receipt was executed shortly before receipt dated 7.07.2006<\/p>\n<p>Annexure P-11 as pleaded in the reply to application for<\/p>\n<p>temporary injunction. It was also pointed out by learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for respondents that six bank drafts dated 1.05.2006 for total<\/p>\n<p>amount of Rs.50 lacs were paid by the respondents to the<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff but the said drafts were got prepared in favour of one<\/p>\n<p>Madan Bassi (for Rs.25 lacs) and in favour of Harminder Pal (for<\/p>\n<p>Rs.25 lacs) on the instructions of the plaintiff and the same<\/p>\n<p>stand encashed at Ludhiana on 3.05.2006.              Vide receipt<\/p>\n<p>Annexure P-10, a sum of Rs.74 lakhs was recited to have been<\/p>\n<p>received by the plaintiff and vide receipt Annexure P-11, a sum<\/p>\n<p>of Rs.36 lakhs was recited to have been received by the plaintiff.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to bank drafts of Rs.50 lacs, the plaintiff has admitted<\/p>\n<p>to have received bank drafts of Rs.24 lakhs (three drafts of Rs.8<\/p>\n<p>lacs each), but allegedly relating to cancellation of the<\/p>\n<p>agreement of M\/s Mangla Cotex Ltd. and not for cancellation of<\/p>\n<p>agreement Annexure P-1 of Kartar Glass Company.<\/p>\n<p>           As noticed above, receipt Annexure P-10 is undated<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> Civil Revision No.6886 of 2006 (O &amp; M)              -5-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>but scribed on stamp papers purchased on 27.03.2006. The<\/p>\n<p>defendants have refrained from specifying even approximate<\/p>\n<p>date of the said receipt.      Even learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>respondents on pointed inquiry is unable to state the<\/p>\n<p>approximate date of the said receipt. However, bank drafts for<\/p>\n<p>Rs.50 lacs were allegedly got prepared by the defendants on<\/p>\n<p>1.05.2006. Consequently, alleged cancellation of the agreement<\/p>\n<p>Annexure P-1 must have been agreed upon on or before<\/p>\n<p>1.05.2006. As per documents Annexure P-10 and Annexure P-<\/p>\n<p>11, both the agreements were cancelled. However, the second<\/p>\n<p>agreement was dated 1.05.2006. It is prima facie highly<\/p>\n<p>improbable that the parties entered into the second agreement<\/p>\n<p>on 1.05.2006 and the plaintiff paid Rs.60 lacs to the defendants<\/p>\n<p>as earnest money on that date, and on the same day, the parties<\/p>\n<p>agreed to cancel both the agreements. Learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>respondents contended that only one agreement i.e Annexure<\/p>\n<p>P-1 was cancelled on that date. However, documents Annexure<\/p>\n<p>P-10 and Annexure P-11 refer to cancellation of both the<\/p>\n<p>agreements.    Even if for the sake of argument alone, it is<\/p>\n<p>assumed that only one agreement i.e annexure P-1 was agreed<\/p>\n<p>to be cancelled on 1.5.2006, the same also appears to be<\/p>\n<p>improbable because on the same day, the plaintiff had paid<\/p>\n<p>Rs.60 lacs as earnest money to the defendants under the<\/p>\n<p>second agreement. Moveover, the defendants would not have<\/p>\n<p>paid the bank drafts dated 1.05.2006 for Rs.50 lacs to the<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> Civil Revision No.6886 of 2006 (O &amp; M)                -6-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>plaintiff on 1.05.2006 without any receipt, particularly because<\/p>\n<p>the said bank drafts were not even in favour of plaintiff but were<\/p>\n<p>in favour of some two other persons.\n<\/p>\n<p>           There is another significant aspect of the matter.<\/p>\n<p>Agreement Annexure P1 stands admitted by both the parties.<\/p>\n<p>Vide this agreement, earnest money of Rs.1 crore was paid in<\/p>\n<p>cash. However, receipt Annexure P-11 refers to the earnest<\/p>\n<p>money of Rs.1 crore paid by way of two bank drafts of Rs.50<\/p>\n<p>lacs each to the Official Liquidator and not to the defendants<\/p>\n<p>directly. Learned counsel for the respondents has not been able<\/p>\n<p>to explain this significant contradiction.<\/p>\n<p>           Learned counsel for the petitioner also pointed out<\/p>\n<p>that the petitioner had paid Rs.1 crore vide agreement Annexure<\/p>\n<p>P-1 and Rs.60 lacs vide second agreement dated 1.05.2006, but<\/p>\n<p>according to documents Annexure P-10 and Annexure P-11, a<\/p>\n<p>sum of Rs.1.10 crore only was refunded to the petitioner and<\/p>\n<p>there is no recital in these documents nor any pleading by the<\/p>\n<p>defendants that the petitioner had foregone the remaining<\/p>\n<p>amount of Rs.50 lacs.        There is considerable force in the<\/p>\n<p>contention. The aforesaid contention of the learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner has not been rebutted in any manner.         On the<\/p>\n<p>contrary, perusal of documents Annexures P-10 and P-11<\/p>\n<p>reveals that the petitioner had been paid Rs.1.10 crore as<\/p>\n<p>against the earnest money of Rs.1 crore. These documents do<\/p>\n<p>not at all refer to the earnest money of Rs.60 lacs paid under the<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> Civil Revision No.6886 of 2006 (O &amp; M)                 -7-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>second agreement dated 1.05.2006.\n<\/p>\n<p>           Learned counsel for the respondents emphasised that<\/p>\n<p>document Annexure P-10 is in the own handwriting of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner and document Annexure P-11 has been signed by the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner. However, this fact can be ascertained only after the<\/p>\n<p>parties lead evidence in the Trial Court.       At this stage, the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner has not admitted these documents.<\/p>\n<p>           Learned counsel for the respondents emphasised that<\/p>\n<p>concurrent finding of facts by both the Courts below even if<\/p>\n<p>erroneous should not be interfered with in exercise of jurisdiction<\/p>\n<p>under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The contention<\/p>\n<p>cannot be accepted as there is no concurrent finding of fact by<\/p>\n<p>both the Courts below. On the other hand, final finding of fact<\/p>\n<p>has to be arrived at after recording evidence in the suit. At this<\/p>\n<p>stage, prima facie case has to be looked into on the basis of the<\/p>\n<p>material of the record.        The Courts below have failed to<\/p>\n<p>appreciate documents Annexures P-10 and P-11 in proper<\/p>\n<p>perspective. Moreover, when the petitioner has filed suit for<\/p>\n<p>specific performance, it would be desirable to preserve the suit<\/p>\n<p>property   because    otherwise    the   petitioner   would   suffer<\/p>\n<p>irreparable loss and injury.\n<\/p>\n<p>           Learned counsel for the respondents also contended<\/p>\n<p>that plea of forgery of documents Annexures P-10 and P-11 has<\/p>\n<p>been raised for the first time in the revision petition.       This<\/p>\n<p>contention also cannot be accepted because it was also so<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> Civil Revision No.6886 of 2006 (O &amp; M)                   -8-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>taken up in the appeal and also in the replication.<\/p>\n<p>            For the foregoing reasons, I find that the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>has made out a strong prima facie case.                  Balance of<\/p>\n<p>convenience is also in favour of the petitioner because he has<\/p>\n<p>paid huge amount of Rs.1 crore which stands admitted by the<\/p>\n<p>defendants.    The petitioner would obviously suffer irreparable<\/p>\n<p>loss and injury, if the defendants are allowed to remove the iron,<\/p>\n<p>machinery and trees from the suit property or to alienate the<\/p>\n<p>same. The impugned orders of both the Courts below are not<\/p>\n<p>sustainable at all.\n<\/p>\n<p>            In view of the aforesaid, the instant revision petition is<\/p>\n<p>allowed and impugned orders of both the Courts below are set<\/p>\n<p>aside and application filed by the petitioner for temporary<\/p>\n<p>injunction is allowed and defendants are &#8216;restrained&#8217; from<\/p>\n<p>removing iron, machinery\/scrap and trees from the suit property<\/p>\n<p>till final decision of the suit. However, nothing observed herein<\/p>\n<p>above shall influence the Trial Court at the time of final decision<\/p>\n<p>of the suit. The trial Court shall make endeavor to decide the<\/p>\n<p>suit expeditiously and preferably within one year from the date of<\/p>\n<p>receipt of a copy of this order.\n<\/p>\n<p>            Both the parties shall be given only two effective<\/p>\n<p>opportunities each for leading their evidence.<\/p>\n<p>                                                   ( L.
