Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of Order XXI Rules (1), (4), and (5) of the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC) along with Section 34 CPC and Section 3(3)(c) of the Interest Act in the context of an execution petition following an arbitration award. The Court upheld the Division Bench's ruling that the appellant had not fully paid the awarded amount, affirming the execution of the award and the entitlement of the respondent to interest on the awarded sum. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the lower court's decision.
