Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's order affirming the dismissal of the Delhi Financial Corporation's (DFC) application to retract from a settlement with the landlords regarding possession of leased premises. The Court noted that the DFC had previously agreed to vacate the premises by 31.8.2006 and had provided an affidavit confirming this commitment. The Court found no grounds to interfere with the High Court's decision, thereby reinforcing the binding nature of the settlement under Order XII Rule 6 CPC.
