The petitioners had purchased the land bearing Survey Nos.<br \/>\n511, 524 to 540, 514 to 519 and 523 of Mouje Village Vitthalpura,<br \/>\nTaluka Memdabad, District Kheda in a Court auction conducted in the<br \/>\nSpecial Darkhast No. 3\/1988.  The petitioners had paid the full sale<br \/>\nconsideration and the sale in their favour came to be confirmed by<br \/>\nthe learned executing Court.  Not only that the sale certificates<br \/>\ncame to be issued in favour of the petitioners-original auction<br \/>\npurchasers and even the sale deed came to be executed in favour of<br \/>\nthe petitioners with respect to the aforesaid land in question by the<br \/>\nCourt on 24\/04\/1994.  Thereafter, the petitioners submitted<br \/>\napplications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114<br \/>\nand 87  before the learned trial Court for delivering actual<br \/>\npossession of the aforesaid land in question under Order 21 Rule 95<br \/>\nof the Code of Civil Procedure on  25\/07\/1994.  It appears that even<br \/>\nafter auctioning\/selling the aforesaid land in question and realizing<br \/>\nthe amount, still according to  respondent no. 3-judgement creditor,<br \/>\na sum of Rs. 6 lakhs was due and payable under the decree, and,<br \/>\ntherefore, for the balance amount of Rs. 6 lakhs, Special Darkhast<br \/>\nNo. 3\/1988 was continued by respondent no. 3- judgement creditor.  It<br \/>\nappears that during the pendency of the aforesaid applications, Exhs.<br \/>\n81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted by<br \/>\nthe petitioners for delivering actual possession under Order 21 Rule<br \/>\n95 of the Code of Civil Procedure in Special  Darkhast No. 3\/1988,<br \/>\nrespondent no. 3-judgement creditor and respondents nos. 1 and<br \/>\n2-judgement debtors settled the dispute with respect to the balance<br \/>\namount of Rs. 6 lakhs for an amount of Rs. 1 lakh  and on payment of<br \/>\nRs. 1 lakh purshis was submitted by the respondent no. 3-judgement<br \/>\ncreditor stating that the decree is now satisfied and, therefore,<br \/>\nrespondent no. 3-judgemnet creditor withdrew Special Darkhast No.<br \/>\n3\/1988 and\/or requested the learned trial Court to dispose of Special<br \/>\nDarkhast No. 3\/1988 by submitting that the decree is fully satisfied.<br \/>\n The learned executing Court though the aforesaid applications, Exhs.<br \/>\n81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted by<br \/>\nthe petitioners were pending, which were submitted under Order 21<br \/>\nRule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure for delivering actual<br \/>\npossession of the properties purchased by them under the Court<br \/>\nauction, the learned executing Court disposed of Special Darkhast No.<br \/>\n3\/1988 vide order dated 22\/03\/2005.  It appears that thereafter some<br \/>\nthird party, Bhailalbhai Somabhai Patel &amp; and others preferred<br \/>\nSpecial Civil Suit No. 37\/2007 in the Court of learned Civil Judge<br \/>\n(Senior Division), Nadiad on 14\/08\/2007 with respect to the land in<br \/>\nquestion purchased by the petitioners in the Court auction in the<br \/>\nSpecial Darkhast No. 3\/1988 and the petitioners came to be served<br \/>\nwith the summons of the said suit and it is the case on behalf of the<br \/>\npetitioners that at that time they came to know about the disposal of<br \/>\nSpecial Darkhast No. 3\/1988 without finally deciding and disposing of<br \/>\nthe applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111,<br \/>\n114 and 87 submitted by the petitioner under Order 21 Rule 95 of the<br \/>\nCode of Civil Procedure and, therefore, the petitioners preferred<br \/>\nMiscellaneous Civil Application No. 2\/2008 in Special Darkhast No.<br \/>\n3\/1988 requesting the learned executing Court  to recall the order<br \/>\ndated 22\/03\/2005 disposing of Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 to take the<br \/>\nsame on file and thereafter to decide and dispose of the<br \/>\napplications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114<br \/>\nand 87  submitted by the petitioners submitted under Order 21 Rule 95<br \/>\nof the Code of Civil Procedure.  The Miscellaneous Civil Application<br \/>\nNo. 2\/2008 came to be dismissed by the learned 2nd<br \/>\nAdditional Senior Civil Judge, Nadiad vide impugned order dated<br \/>\n23\/12\/2008 by holding that the same is beyond the period of<br \/>\nlimitation and that the petitioners have not prayed for condonation<br \/>\nof  delay and, therefore, the application filed under Section 151 of<br \/>\nthe Code of Civil Procedure deserves to be dismissed.  Being<br \/>\naggrieved and dissatisfied with the impugned order dated 23\/12\/2008<br \/>\npassed by the learned 2nd Additional Senior Civil Judge,<br \/>\nNadiad below Exh. 1 in Miscellaneous Civil Application No. 2\/2008,<br \/>\nthe petitioners-original purchasers have preferred the present Civil<br \/>\nRevision Application.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tThough<br \/>\nserved, nobody appears on behalf of the respondents nos. 1 and<br \/>\n2-original judgement debtors.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tHeard<br \/>\nShri N.D. Nanavati, learned Senior  advocate appearing on behalf of<br \/>\nthe petitioners-original purchasers and Ms. Mita Panchal, learned<br \/>\nadvocate appearing on behalf of  respondent no. 3-original judgement<br \/>\ncreditor.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\tShri<br \/>\nN.D. Nanavati, learned Senior  advocate appearing on behalf of the<br \/>\npetitioners-original purchasers has submitted that admittedly the<br \/>\npetitioners have purchased the land in question in a Court auction<br \/>\nand have paid the full sale consideration  and the sale certificates<br \/>\nhave also been issued in favour of the petitioners and even the sale<br \/>\ndeeds have also been executed by the Court in their favour and the<br \/>\napplications submitted by the petitioners with respect to actual<br \/>\ndelivery of  possession of the disputed land in question were to be<br \/>\ndecided by the learned executing Court.  It is submitted that<br \/>\ntherefore the learned executing Court was required to decide and<br \/>\ndispose of the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105,<br \/>\n108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted by the petitioners under Order 21<br \/>\nRule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure by actually delivering the<br \/>\npossession of the disputed land in question and ought not have<br \/>\ndisposed of Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988.  It is further submitted<br \/>\nthat even the learned executing Court at the relevant time did not<br \/>\nproperly appreciate and\/or consider the purshis\/application submitted<br \/>\nby respondent no. 3-judgement creditor.  It was submitted by<br \/>\nrespondent no. 3-judgement creditor that after auctioning\/selling the<br \/>\nproperty in question in favour of the petitioners and realizing the<br \/>\namount, still further sum of Rs. 6 lakhs was due and payable under<br \/>\nthe decree and for recovery of the balance amount sum of Rs .6 lakhs,<br \/>\nSpecial Darkhast No. 3\/1988 was continued and with respect to the<br \/>\nsaid balance amount of Rs. 6 lakhs there was settlement between<br \/>\nrespondent no. 3-judgement creditor and respondents nos. 1 and<br \/>\n2-judgement debtors for an amount of Rs. 1 lakh and, therefore, it<br \/>\nwas submitted that on payment of Rs. 1 lakh, the decree was to be<br \/>\nsatisfied.  It is submitted that the learned Judge misconstrued the<br \/>\nabove and understood that on payment of Rs. 1 lakh the entire decree<br \/>\nshould be satisfied.   It is submitted that there the learned Judge<br \/>\ncommitted an error  by  disposing of  Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 by<br \/>\nnot further passing orders on the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90,<br \/>\n93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87 submitted by the<br \/>\npetitioners under Order 21 Rule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure for<br \/>\nactual delivery of the possession of the disputed land in question<br \/>\npurchased by the petitioner in Court auction for which even the sale<br \/>\ndeed have been executed in their favour and, therefore, it is<br \/>\nsubmitted that when an application was submitted by the petitioners<br \/>\nto take on file the Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 and to decide and<br \/>\ndispose of the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105,<br \/>\n108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted by the petitioners  under Order 21<br \/>\nRule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the learned Judge ought to<br \/>\nhave allowed the said applications by restoring Special Darkhast No.<br \/>\n3\/1988 to file by further deciding and disposing of the applications,<br \/>\nExhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87<br \/>\nsubmitted by the petitioners.  It is submitted that as such even the<br \/>\napplications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114<br \/>\nand 87  submitted by the petitioners under Order 21 Rule 95 of the<br \/>\nCode of Civil Procedure could have been treated as an independent<br \/>\napplication and ought to have been decided by the learned executing<br \/>\nCourt in exercise of powers under Article  151  of the Code of Civil<br \/>\nProcedure and, therefore, it is requested to allow the present Civil<br \/>\nRevision Application by quashing and setting aside the impugned order<br \/>\nand by directing  the learned executing Court to decide and dispose<br \/>\nof the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108,<br \/>\n111, 114 and 87   submitted by the petitioners in accordance with law<br \/>\nand on its own merits.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.\tAs<br \/>\nstated hereinabove, though served nobody appears on behalf of<br \/>\nrespondents nos. 1 and 2-original judgement debtors.    Ms. Mita<br \/>\nPanchal, learned advocate appearing on behalf of respondent no.<br \/>\n3-original judgement creditor has fairly conceded that the subsequent<br \/>\nsettlement with the judgement debtors was respect to the balance<br \/>\namount of Rs. 6 lakhs (after auctioning the properties in question<br \/>\nand realizing the amount) and it was settled for an amount of Rs. 1<br \/>\nlakh and to that respondent no. 3-judgement creditor submitted that<br \/>\non further payment of Rs. 1 lakh the decree is satisfied  and,<br \/>\ntherefore, it is requested to pass an appropriate order.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.\tHeard<br \/>\nthe learned advocates appearing on behalf of the respective parties.<br \/>\nIt appears that the petitioners are the purchasers of the disputed<br \/>\nproperties\/land in question in a Court auction conducted by the Court<br \/>\nin Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988.  It is not in dispute that the<br \/>\npetitioners have already deposited the entire sale consideration with<br \/>\nthe Court and even the learned executing Court had already issued the<br \/>\nsale certificates in favour of the respective petitioners with<br \/>\nrespect to the land in question.  Thereafter the only order, which<br \/>\nwas required to be passed by the learned executing Court, was<br \/>\ndelivering the actual possession of the land in question and,<br \/>\ntherefore, the petitioners submitted applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90,<br \/>\n93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87 under Order 21 Rule 95 of<br \/>\nthe Code of Civil Procedure for handing over actual possession of the<br \/>\nland in question but during pendency of the aforesaid applications,<br \/>\nrespondent no. 3-judgement creditor continued  with the Execution<br \/>\nPetition on the ground that still  further sum of Rs.  6 lakhs  was<br \/>\ndue and payable under the decree.  It appears that with respect to<br \/>\nthe balance amount of Rs. 6 lakhs due and payable under the decree,<br \/>\nthere was settlement between respondent no. 3-judgemnet creditor and<br \/>\nrespondents nos. 1 and 2-judgement debtors for  a sum of Rs. 1 lakh<br \/>\nand, therefore, on further  payment of Rs. 1 lakh,  respondent no.<br \/>\n3-judgement creditor submitted an application submitting that the<br \/>\ndecree is satisfied and on misinterpreting and\/or misconstruing the<br \/>\nsaid application and settlement the learned executing Court disposed<br \/>\nof the entire Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 without passing any order<br \/>\non the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108,<br \/>\n111, 114 and 87  submitted by the petitioners-original purchasers<br \/>\nunder Order 21 Rule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure for actually<br \/>\ndelivering the possession of the properties purchased by them in a<br \/>\nCourt auction.  Since the petitioners came to know about the same the<br \/>\npetitioners submitted Miscellaneous Civil Application No. 2\/2008<br \/>\nunder Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure to restore Special<br \/>\nDarkhast No. 3\/1988 to file and thereafter to decide and dispose of<br \/>\nthe applications,  Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111,<br \/>\n114 and 87  submitted by the petitioners for actual delivery of the<br \/>\npossession under Order 21 Rule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure,<br \/>\nwhich unfortunately the learned executing Court has dismissed on the<br \/>\nground that the same is barred by limitation.  Considering the<br \/>\naforesaid facts and circumstances of the case when the petitioners<br \/>\nhave purchased the properties in question in Court auction and have<br \/>\npaid full consideration and even the sale certificates came to be<br \/>\nissued by the Court in their favour, the only further order, which<br \/>\nwas required to be passed was respect to handing over the actual<br \/>\npossession.  As the possession was not handed over the<br \/>\npetitioners-purchasers submitted an application under Order 21 Rule<br \/>\n95 of the Code of Civil Procedure and as such the said application<br \/>\nunder Order 21 Rule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure submitted by<br \/>\nthe petitioners-purchasers were required to be  treated as<br \/>\nindependent application and the learned executing Court was required<br \/>\nto decide and dispose of the same independently.  Unfortunately, the<br \/>\nlearned executing Court disposed of Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 on<br \/>\npayment of Rs. 1 lakh without properly appreciating the fact that the<br \/>\naforesaid amount of Rs. 1 lakh  was with respect to the balance<br \/>\namount (after auctioning the properties in question in favour of the<br \/>\npetitioners in a Court auction and realizing the amount) and,<br \/>\ntherefore, it appears that the learned executing Court  has<br \/>\nmaterially erred in dismissing Miscellaneous Civil Application No.<br \/>\n2\/2008 by not restoring the Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 to file in<br \/>\nexercise of powers under Article 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure.<br \/>\nThe learned executing Court ought not to have dismissed the said<br \/>\napplication on the ground of delay.  As stated hereinabove even in<br \/>\nexercise of powers under Article 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure<br \/>\nthe learned executing Court ought to have  passed an order to decide<br \/>\nand dispose of the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96, 99, 102,<br \/>\n105, 108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted by the petitioners-purchasers<br \/>\nunder Order 21 Rule 95 of the Code of Civil Procedure independently.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.\tIn<br \/>\nview of the above and for the reasons stated hereinabove, the<br \/>\nimpugned order passed by the learned 2nd Additional Senior<br \/>\nCivil Judge, Nadiad below Exh. 1 in Miscellaneous Civil Application<br \/>\nNo. 2\/2008 deserves to be quashed  and set aside  and Special<br \/>\nDarkhast No. 3\/1988 is to be restored to file only for the purpose of<br \/>\ndeciding and disposing of the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93,<br \/>\n96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted by the<br \/>\npetitioners-purchasers under Order 21 Rule 95 of the Code of Civil<br \/>\nProcedure for delivering the possession of the  disputed land in<br \/>\nquestion purchased by the petitioners in a Court auction for which<br \/>\nthe sale certificates have been issued in their favour.  Accordingly,<br \/>\nthe impugned order passed by the learned 2nd Additional<br \/>\nSenior Civil Judge, Nadiad dated 23\/12\/2005 below Exh. 1 in<br \/>\nMiscellaneous Civil Application No. 2\/2008 is hereby quashed and set<br \/>\naside and  Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 is restored to file  for the<br \/>\npurpose of deciding and disposing of the applications, Exhs. 81,  84,<br \/>\n90, 93, 96, 99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87  submitted  by the<br \/>\npetitioners-purchasers  under Order 21 Rule 95 of Code of Civil<br \/>\nProcedure and the learned executing court is hereby directed to<br \/>\ndecide and dispose of the applications, Exhs. 81,  84, 90, 93, 96,<br \/>\n99, 102, 105, 108, 111, 114 and 87 in Special Darkhast No. 3\/1988 in<br \/>\naccordance with law and on its own merits at the earliest but not<br \/>\nlater than three months form the date of receipt of the present<br \/>\norder.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.\tWith<br \/>\nthis, the present Civil Revision Application is allowed.
