Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning a construction contract dispute, where the appellant claimed unpaid amounts for extra work performed. The Court examined the claims under various heads, including unpaid amounts for pitching and excavation, and upheld the Trial Court's decree for certain claims while modifying the High Court's decision that denied others. The Court emphasized the importance of contractual obligations and the necessity for clear evidence of extra work to support claims for additional payments, ultimately affirming the modified decree.
