Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that a stay order in execution matters is prohibitory and does not strip the executing court of its jurisdiction unless communicated. The court clarified that the jurisdiction remains intact, and the stay order only prevents further proceedings until the court is made aware of it. The appeal was dismissed, affirming that the permission granted by the Magistrate was valid despite the stay order not being communicated, as the jurisdiction was not lost but merely stayed.
