The Supreme Court addressed the issue of limitation in execution proceedings under the Limitation Act, 1963. The court examined whether the starting point for the limitation period should be the date of the compromise decree or the date of the final decree. It concluded that the execution application was barred by time as it was filed 12 years after the final decree, thus upholding the High Court's dismissal of the revision petition.
