Nos. 332\/1995                     and 378\/1995<\/p>\n<p>respectively. The plaintiff and 2nd defendant in both suits are the same<\/p>\n<p>persons . The 1st defendant in O.S No. 332\/1995 is one Chirinakandy<\/p>\n<p>Thottoli Ottapilan Devi Amma and in O.S. No. 378\/1995 is the daughter of<\/p>\n<p>the 1st defendant in O.S No. 332\/1995. The 1st defendant in both suits<\/p>\n<p>agreed to sell the property scheduled to the respective plaints to the same<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff. The suits were filed for realisation of advance amounts paid by the<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff to the 1st defendants       in both suits. The suits were    decreed.<\/p>\n<p>Hence these appeals by the 1st defendant in both suits.<\/p>\n<p>        2.    The subject matter of O.S. No. 332\/1995 is 22 Cents. On<\/p>\n<p>12.8.1994 the plaintiff and defendants executed Ext.A1                agreement<\/p>\n<p>whereby the 1st defendant agreed to sell the plaint schedule property for a<\/p>\n<p>price fixed by the parties i.e at the rate of 12,000\/- per Cent. The 1st<\/p>\n<p>defendant received Rs.15,000\/- as advance amount. The date fixed for<\/p>\n<p>execution of the registered sale deed is on or before 11.2.1995, after<\/p>\n<p>receiving the balance consideration.          Subsequently on 25.9.1994 the 1st<\/p>\n<p>defendant approached the plaintiff and received a further amount of Rs.<\/p>\n<p>A.S. No. 775 of 1998<br \/>\n        &amp;<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> A.S. No. 115 of 1999                 -2-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>20,000\/- It is alleged in the plaint that subsequently the plaintiff and 2nd<\/p>\n<p>defendant came to know that a portion of the property has been acquired<\/p>\n<p>for the construction of a bye-pass road for a national highway. According<\/p>\n<p>to the plaintiff the proposal of the said road and the acquisition for the<\/p>\n<p>same was fully known to the 1st defendant and that Ext.A1 sale deed was<\/p>\n<p>executed by the 1st defendant suppressing the real facts. It is also averred<\/p>\n<p>in the plaint that when the plaintiff and the 2nd defendant came to know of<\/p>\n<p>the acquisition of the portion of the plaint schedule property and found that<\/p>\n<p>survey stones were fixed by the national highway authorities over the<\/p>\n<p>plaint schedule property, the plaintiff approached the 1st defendant for the<\/p>\n<p>return of Rs,     35,000\/- with interest     which was received by the 1st<\/p>\n<p>defendant. Since the 1st defendant evaded the payment of the above said<\/p>\n<p>amount the suit was filed for realisation of the same.<\/p>\n<p>       3.   The plaint schedule property in O.S. No. 378\/1995         is the<\/p>\n<p>adjoining property which stands in the name of the 1st      defendant who is<\/p>\n<p>the daughter of the 1st defendant in O.S. No. 332\/1995. The extent of<\/p>\n<p>property therein is also 22 Cents In this suit also the price rate per Cent<\/p>\n<p>and the date of the agreement for sale are same as mentioned in O.S. No.<\/p>\n<p>332\/1995. The sale deed is also marked as Ext.A1. The 1st defendant<\/p>\n<p>received an advance amount Rs.15,000\/- .The date fixed for execution of<\/p>\n<p>the sale deed is on or before 11.2.1995 after receiving the balance<\/p>\n<p>consideration. Subsequently on 10.9.1994 the 1st defendant approached<\/p>\n<p>the plaintiff and received a further amount of Rs. 10,000\/- Thus altogether<\/p>\n<p>an amount of Rs. 25,000\/- was received from the plaintiff by the 1st<\/p>\n<p>A.S. No. 775 of 1998<br \/>\n         &amp;<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> A.S. No. 115 of 1999                  -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>defendant. The plaintiff sued for relisation of the amount of Rs.25,000\/-<\/p>\n<p>with interest on the very same set of facts as mentioned in O.S. 332\/1995.<\/p>\n<p>The decreed amount in in O.S. No. 332\/1995 is Rs.40,025.18 and the<\/p>\n<p>decreed amount in O.S No. 378\/1995 is Rs. 28,772.58.<\/p>\n<p>       4.    The parties hereinafter are referred to plaintiff and defendants<\/p>\n<p>as arrayed in O.S No.. 332\/1995 The plaintiff in both suits are the same<\/p>\n<p>person . Different agreements were executed on the same date . The facts<\/p>\n<p>leading to the filing of the suits are similar. The issues raised in both suits<\/p>\n<p>are also similar The 1st defendant in both suits resisted the plaint claims<\/p>\n<p>and contended that plaintiff was not ready and willing to take necessary<\/p>\n<p>steps to get the assignment in his name. The 1st defendant denied the<\/p>\n<p>averment that the agreement of sale was executed suppressing the<\/p>\n<p>material facts. According to the 1st defendant the sale deed was not<\/p>\n<p>executed since the plaintiff committed default       in   paying the balance<\/p>\n<p>consideration and thus the 1st defendant suffered financial loss and she<\/p>\n<p>was forced to sell her another property     for a cheap consideration to meet<\/p>\n<p>some emergent needs and that the plaintiff is not entitled to realise the<\/p>\n<p>plaint claim.\n<\/p>\n<p>       5.    The execution of Ext.A1 agreement          is not disputed. The<\/p>\n<p>receipt of advance amount and the further amount as stated in the plaint<\/p>\n<p>are admitted by the 1st defendant The trial court appreciated the facts and<\/p>\n<p>decided the issues on the basis of the oral evidence tendered by PW1,<\/p>\n<p>DW1 and the documentary evidence. The trial court also concluded that<\/p>\n<p>the quantum of amount stated in the plaint is the amount admittedly<\/p>\n<p>A.S. No. 775 of 1998<br \/>\n        &amp;<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> A.S. No. 115 of 1999                 -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>received by the 1st defendant and that the plaintiff has withdrawn from<\/p>\n<p>Ext.A1 sale deed for legal and valid reasons.\n<\/p>\n<p>      6.      The next contention     examined by the trial court is as to<\/p>\n<p>whether the 1st defendant has sustained any financial loss or not. . on a<\/p>\n<p>perusal of the material on record I am of the view that the 1st defendant did<\/p>\n<p>not adduce any evidence to prove that she has sustained financial loss<\/p>\n<p>due to the non-performance and non-payment of the                      balance<\/p>\n<p>consideration by the plaintiff. The trial court held that the sale deed was<\/p>\n<p>not executed not due to the fault of the plaintiff, that there is no reason to<\/p>\n<p>reject the plaint claim and that the 1st defendant committed breach of<\/p>\n<p>contract. The trial court also held that the contention of the 1st defendant is<\/p>\n<p>untenable and directed the 1st defendant to pay the plaint claim with<\/p>\n<p>interest from the date of suit till realisation . The trial also decreed both<\/p>\n<p>suits. I find no reason to interfere with the findings entered by the trial<\/p>\n<p>court in both suits.. The views taken        by the court below are the only<\/p>\n<p>views possible in the given circumstances<\/p>\n<p>      In the result, these appeals fails and accordingly dismissed with<\/p>\n<p>costs.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                     (HARUN-UL-RASHID, JUDGE)<br \/>\nes.\n<\/p>\n<p>HARUN-UL-RASHID, J.\n<\/p>\n<p> &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;\n<\/p>\n<p>A.S.
