Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the execution of a money decree under the Code of Civil Procedure, specifically Article 227 and Order XXI, Rule 85. The Court held that the executing court lacks the power to extend the time for deposit of the full sale price, and thus the sale confirmation was invalid due to the appellant's failure to deposit the complete amount within the prescribed time. The High Court's order reinstating the judgment-debtor's possession was upheld, emphasizing the necessity of adhering to procedural timelines in execution proceedings.
