Respondent(s) (Cause-title taken from Case Information System) For Petitioner : Shri Aman Ansari, Advocate. INDRAJEET SAHU Digitally signed by INDRAJEET SAHU Date: 2026.09.18 10:06:07 +0530 2 Hon’ble Shri Justice Ravindra Kumar Agrawal, J Order on Board 17.09.2026 1. The present writ petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India has been filed by the petitioner against the impugned orders dated 25.04.2026 and 04.05.2026 whereby the executing court has calculated the interest on decreetal amount on simple interest mode and has closed the execution proceeding. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that a decree has been passed in favour of petitioner in Civil Suit No.19-A/1987 on 26.11.1992 whereby the plaintiffs including the present petitioner were held entitled for refund of Rs.24,000/- along with interest @ 12 percent per annum from 05.09.1983 till its payment, Rs.6000/-along with interest @ 12 percent per annum from 16.04.1984 till its realization and amount of Rs.6000/-along with interest @ 12 percent per annum from 28.07.1984 till its realization. Though the said decree has been affirmed up to Hon’ble Supreme Court, however, the interest over the said decreetal amount have not been properly calculated on the basis of compound interest, but it has been calculated on simple interest by the trial court. He would further submit that though the petitioner claimed compound interest in the suit, however, the trial court has not made any direction with respect to mode of calculation of interest. Therefore, the impugned orders directing the judgment debtor to pay the decreetal amount along with simple interest is erroneous and the same is liable to be modified. 3. I have heard the counsel for the petitioner and perused the documents annexed with the petition. 3 4. From perusal of decree dated 26.11.1992 passed by the District Judge, Raigarh, in Civil Suit No.19-A/1987 it transpires that the decreetal amount was directed to be paid to the plaintiffs along with interest @ 12 percent from the respective dates. There is no direction in the decree that the decreetal amount should be paid with compound interest. It is necessary to note here the relevant part of the decree dated 26.11.1992 which reads as under : “It is ordered and decreed that: lafonk dh fofufnZ”V iwfrZ dk okn [kkfjt fd;k tkrk gS vkSj ;g vkns’k fn;k tkrk gS fd izfroknh :i;s 24000@& oknhx.kksa dks vnk djsxkA rFkk 05-09-1983 ls 12 izfr’kr dh nj ls vnk;xh rkjh[k rd] 6000@&:i;s ij fnukad 16-04-1984 ls vnk;xh rkjh[k rd rFkk ‘ks”k 6000@&ij 28- 08-1984 ls vnk;xh dh rkjh[k rd 12 izfr’kr dh nj ls C;kt vnk djus ds fy, mRRkjnk;h gSA vr% bl vk’k; dh fMdzh izfroknh ds fo:) ikfjr dh tkrh gSA” 5. From perusal of said part of the decree it does not appear that the interest was ordered to be calculated on compound interest rate, but it was the simple interest as has been awarded to the plaintiffs by the said decree. From perusal of impugned orders dated 25.04.2026 and 04.05.2026 it further transpires that the trial court has rightly calculated the interest over the decreetal amount on simple interest @ 12 percent per annum. The calculation made by the trial court in its order dated 25.04.2026 is as under: “इस न्यायालया द्वारा दिनाँ क 26/12/1992 क पारिरात निनाँर्णया क अनाँसरा वागर्ण क मूलधनाँ ₹24,000/- दिलया है! तथा ₹12,000/- पारा दिनाँ क 05/09/1983 स 12% वार्षि$%क क& रा स ब्याज, 6,000/- ₹ पारा दिनाँ क 16/04/1984 स 12% वार्षि$%क क& रा स ब्याज, 6,000/- ₹ पारा दिनाँ क 28/07/1984 स 12% वार्षि$%क क& रा स ब्याज एवा* अनाँपानितक व्यया दिलया जनाँ क आश दिया है!, जिजसक& गर्णनाँ निनाँम्नाँनाँसरा हैत0 है!1- 01- मूलधनाँ ₹12,000/- + ब्याज ₹61,920/- (12% वार्षि$%क क& रा स ₹1440/- प्रनितवा$ 43 वा$ क वा$ 1983 स 2026) 02- मूलधनाँ ₹6,000/- + ब्याज ₹30,240/- (12% वार्षि$%क क& रा स ₹720/- प्रनितवा$ 42 वा$ क दिनाँ क 16/04/1984 स वा$ 2026 तक) 4 03- मूलधनाँ ₹6,000/- + ब्याज ₹30,240/- (12% वार्षि$%क क& रा स ₹720/- प्रनितवा$ 42 वा$ क दिनाँ क 28/07/1984 स वा$ 2026 तक) 04- आज्ञप्ति5त क अनाँसरा अनाँपानितक वा व्यया ₹3,840.25 इस तराहै वागर्ण मूलधनाँ ₹24,000/- ब्याज *1,22,400/-( 61,920/-+ ₹ ₹30,240/-+ 30,240/-) ₹ एवा* वा व्यया ₹3,840.25 क ल ₹3,840.25 क ल ₹150240.25 हैत है!। निनाँर्णतऋर्ण0 द्वारा अपानाँ आश 21 निनाँयामू 23 व्य०प्र०स*० क आवानाँ मू9 क ल राशिश ₹1,48,880/- हैनाँ बतया गया है!, ज उशि=त नाँहै> है!, इसशिलए निनाँर्ण?तऋर्ण0गर्ण क& ओरा स प्रस्तत आश 21 निनाँयामू 23 व्य०प्र०स*० क आवानाँ आ*शिशक रूपा स स्वा0करा निकया जत है!, आज्ञप्ति5तधरा0 निनाँर्ण?तऋर्ण0 स व्यवाहैरा वा क्रमू*क 19 अ/1987 मू9 पारिरात निनाँर्णया क अनाँसरा उपाराक्तनाँसरा क ल ₹1,50,240.25 प्र5त करानाँ क अधिधकरा0 हैF, वातमूनाँ प्रकरार्ण मू9 निनाँर्णया एवा* आज्ञप्ति5त वा$ 1992 क& है!, इसशिलए निनाँर्ण?तऋर्ण0गर्ण उक्त राशिश श0घ्रतश0घ्र आज्ञप्ति5तधरा0गर्ण क अ करा9ग ।” 6. Thus, in view of the contents of the decree as well as calculation of the trial court, this court does not find any perversity or jurisdictional error in calculating the interest over the decreetal amount. The orders passed by the trial court is just and proper and needs no interference. 7. Accordingly, the writ petition fails and is hereby dismissed. Sd/- (Ravindra Kumar Agrawal) Judge inder
