Deep Chand & Ors vs Mohan Lal

The Supreme Court held that the execution application filed by the decree-holder was within the limitation period as prescribed under Article 136 of the Limitation Act, which allows for execution of decrees within twelve years from the date they become enforceable. The Court clarified that the limitation period starts from the date of the decree unless specified otherwise. The High Court's decision to allow the revision petition and direct further execution steps was upheld, as the executing court had incorrectly dismissed the application as barred by limitation.
