GHAZIABAD DEV. ATY. vs JAIMALA

The Supreme Court allowed the appeal against the High Court's order imposing exemplary costs of Rs. 25,000, stating that the execution of the sale deed was executed under threat of contempt despite a stay order. The Court clarified that the legality of the execution would not be examined as the sale deed was already registered, and the dispute regarding the payment rate per square yard remains subject to the pending appeal. The Court set aside the imposition of costs, holding it unwarranted under the circumstances.
