JUSTICE S.R.KRISHNA KUMAR ORAL ORDER This petition by the objector / obstructor in Ex.

A perusal of the material on record will indicate that the respondent Nos.1 to 6 – decree holders instituted the aforesaid execution proceedings against the respondent No.7 – judgment debtor to enforce and implement the judgment and decree passed in O.S. No.4288/2008 passed by the Trial Court. During the pendency of the said execution proceedings, the petitioner herein filed an application under Order XXI Rules 99 and 101 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (for short, ‘the CPC’). The respondent Nos.1 to 6 – decree holders have filed objections and are opposing / contesting the said application. Meanwhile, the respondent Nos.1 to 6 filed the instant application for a direction to the petitioner/objector to deposit the arrears of rent. The said application having been opposed by the petitioner, the Executing Court proceeded to pass the impugned order allowing I.A. No.IX, aggrieved by which, the petitioner is before this Court by way of the present petition. 3. Though several contentions have been urged by both sides in support of their respective claims, it is an undisputed fact and a matter of record that the obstructor / objector application filed by the petitioner under Order XXI Rules 99 and 101 of the CPC is - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:4735 WP No. 19458 of 2025 still pending adjudication before the Trial Court. Under these circumstances, without expressing any opinion on the merits / demerits of the rival contentions, I deem it just and appropriate to set aside the impugned order and remit the matter back to the Executing Court for consideration of the obstructor application filed by the petitioner as well as the I.A. No.IX afresh in accordance with law within a stipulated time frame by leaving open all the contentions. 4. In the result, I pass the following: ORDER i). The petition is hereby allowed. ii). The impugned order dated 13.06.2025 passed on I.A No.IX in Ex. No.1763/2021 pending on the file of the XIV Additional City Civil and Sessions Judge, Bengaluru City, is hereby set aside. iii). The matter is remitted back to the Executing Court for consideration of I.A. No.IX afresh in accordance with law. - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:4735 WP No. 19458 of 2025 iv). The Executing Court shall consider the obstructor / objector application filed by the petitioner as well as the I.A. No.IX afresh and pass appropriate orders on both the applications on or before 30.04.2026. v). All rival contentions on all aspects of the matter are kept open and no opinion is expressed on the merits / de-merits of the rival contentions.
