Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the rejection of the petitioners' application under Order VII Rule 11(d) C.P.C., asserting that the respondents' application for determination of mesne profits was not barred by limitation. The Court clarified that such applications are reminders for the Court to complete inquiries as directed in earlier decrees, and there is no specific time limit for initiating these proceedings. The ruling emphasized that inquiries for mesne profits are akin to final decree proceedings, which can be initiated at any time, aligning with the principles established in Kattukandi Edathil Krishnan v. Kattukandi Edathil Valsan.
