Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the petitioner's appeal against the execution sale of property, affirming that the sale was valid despite the absence of valuation in the proclamation under Order 21 Rule 66 CPC. The Court noted that the petitioner failed to provide their own valuation and could not substantiate claims of material irregularity or fraud in the sale process. The Court emphasized that the property was sold for a price significantly exceeding the decretal amount, thus validating the execution proceedings.
