No.1 of 2024 in O.S. No.739 of 2024. 2. In the aforesaid order, the application filed by the petitioners / defendants under Order VII Rule 11 (a) & (d) read with Section 151 CPC, seeking for rejection of plaint filed in O.S. No.739 of 2024, has been dismissed. 3. The trial court, while dismissing the application, has held that the disputes raised by the petitioners / defendants are mixed question of facts and law, which can be decided only after trial. 4. The learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the suit filed by the respondent / plaintiff is barred by the law of limitation. She would submit that eventhough such a plea was taken by the petitioners / defendants in I.A. No.1 of 2024, the trial court under the impugned order has not considered the same. She would submit that the suit was filed on 20.05.2024 and the suit promissory notes are dated 25.05.2021 and 26.05.2021. 5. On a prima facie consideration, this Court finds that the suit has been filed within the period of three years from the date of the execution of the suit https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 4091 of 2026 promissory notes. Though the learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the suit was not numbered on 20.05.2024 and was returned by the Registry of the court on that date and therefore, according to her, the suit has not been filed within the period of limitation. 6. The said contention has to be rejected by this Court, as it is only the date of filing of the suit, which has to be considered for the purpose of calculating the limitation. Since the date of filing of the suit was on 20.05.2024, which is within the period of limitation from the date of execution of the suit promissory notes, this Court, on a prima facie consideration, as observed earlier, holds that the contentions of the petitioners with regard to the limitation, if at all, can be decided only after trial and not through an application under Order VII Rule 11 CPC. 7. The trial court has rightly held in the impugned order that the dispute raised by the petitioners are all mixed question of facts and law, which can be decided only after trial. While deciding an application under Order VII Rule 11 CPC, the court will have to only look into the plaint averments and the plaint documents. 8. As seen from the plaint averments, the suit is well within the period of limitation and it is for the petitioners / defendants to disprove the contentions of https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 4091 of 2026 the respondent / plaintiff after letting in oral and documentary evidence in support of their defence raised in the written statement, which includes the plea of limitation. 9.
