Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the judgment of the Andhra Pradesh High Court affirming the decree for recovery of Rs. 2,33,125/- along with interest at 18% from the date of the suit, based on the execution of pronotes by the respondents. The Court found that the respondents failed to provide sufficient evidence to support their claim of forgery regarding the pronotes. The ruling emphasized the importance of proving the execution of documents in contractual disputes, thereby affirming the lower court's decision in favor of the appellant.
