This petition coming on 31st day of March, 2008 for
final hearing before me in the presence of
Sri K. P. Damodaran, Advocate for the petitioner, and of
Sri Vinod Singh Cheriyan, Advocate for Ist respondent, Sri
M. Ummer, Advocate for 2nd respondent, of
Sri. P. Sankaran Elattery, Advocate for respondents, 3 and
4, and of Sri K. Sathyan, A.G. P. for the respondents 5, 6
and 7 and having stood over to this day for consideration
this court passed the following:
ORDER
Petition under section 10 of the Insolvency Act.
2.
The petitioner’s case in brief is as follows:—
The petitioner who has 3 children has no occupation
and she had to look after her personally and she is not in
a position to go for any sort of work. Her husband is a
coolie doing casual wage works, the earnings from which
would not suffice to meet the day today expenses of the
family. Due to the financial difficulties, the petitioner
borrowed
the
amount
shown
in
the
A
schedule to this petition. The entire assets belonged to
the petitioner are shown in the B schedule. Neither
the petitioner, nor her husband have any property and
building apart from one shown as B schedule. This
petitioner is not able to pay off the amount due to the
creditors. Some of the respondents filed suits for
realisation of the amount. The banks to whom amounts are
due have initiated execution proceedings for sale of
property. If the property is sold, irreparable injury and loss
would be caused to the petitioner who is not able to
dispose of the property and pay off the loan amount. Even
if the property is sold, she would not be able to pay of the
entire amount due to the respondents. This petitioner has
not committed any act of insolvency and she had no
occasion to file a petition to get herself adjudged as
insolvent. So, she prayes for an order declaring and
adjudicating her as insolvent and for appointing an official
receiver to take possession and control of the assets of the
petitioner
described
in
B schedule and for realisation and distribution
among the creditors.
3.
The 1st respondent filed counter statement
contending that the petition is not maintainable since
mandatory provisions under section 139 of the Kerala
State Housing Board Act, 1971 is not complied with. A
loan of Rs. 2 lakhs was sanctioned to the petitioner and
for the said purpose, she had mortgaged her property
having an extent of 16½ cents by a mortgage deed
executed by her and the loan was sanctioned on the basis
of the terms and conditions contained in the mortgage
deed. Before sanctioning the loan, the petitioner was
required to produce some documents relating to her
property, income etc. The income certificate issued by the
Village Officer would show that the income of the
petitioner is Rs. 55,800. Her husband is having an
income of Rs. 8,400 from the property and Rs. 45,000
from the business and the petitioner is having an income
o
f
Rs. 2,400 from the property. The loan was sanctioned on the
strength of the above said certificates. As per the condition
in the mortgage deed, the petitioner was bound to repay
the loan amount in 168 monthly instalments at the rate of
Rs. 3,933. But after availing the loan amount, she has not
paid even a single instalment. When she made default, this
respondent initiated Revenue Recovery Proceedings. This
petitioner has filed the petition on experimental basis. This
respondent has got primary charge of the property of the
petitioner. The Board is entitled to get first preference in
getting
the
amount
out
of R. R. Proceedings. So, the petition may be dismissed.
4.
The 2nd respondent filed counter statement
contending that the petitioner has availed loan from the
2nd respondent bank, and hence, she is liable to pay a
sum of Rs. 5,566.40 with interest. The averment that
her property is not sufficient to satisfy the
said amount is incorrect.
5.
The 3rd respondent filed counter statement
contending that the petitioner owes a sum of Rs. 25,000
to the respondent borrowed as per pro-note
dated 30-1-1999. The petitioner is liable to pay
the said amount.
6.
The 4th respondent filed counter statement stating
that
the
petitioner,
who
owes
a
sum
of
Rs. 30,000 borrowed as per pro-note dated 20-6-1999 and
hence she is liable to pay the amount.
7.
5th respondent and 6th respondent filed separate
counter statement raising some sort of contentions. It was
as per the requisition of the Ist respondent, Revenue
Recovery Proceedings were initiated. The action of this
respondents is legal and vaild.
8.
This Court as per Order in IP 1/2001 dated
14-12-2005 after considering the oral evidence of PW1
and RW1 and documentary evidence marked as Ext. A1,
A2 and B1 to B8 dismissed the petition finding that the
petitioner has not been able to establish that she is entitled
to get the relief as sought for.
9.
Aggrieved by the order passed by this Court, the
petitioner filed AS 137/06 before the District Court,
Kozhikode and the District Judge, Kozhikode as per
Judgement in AS 137/06 dated 11-6-2007 set aside the
order passed by this Court and case is remitted to this
Court with a direction to pass a formal order of
adjudication and initiate further steps in the matter. It is
held by the District Court that the petitioner was not
capable of discharging her liability and that the petitioner
was entitled to declaration.
10.
Heard both sides.
11.
As stated above, the District Court directed this
Court to pass a formal order of adjudication and initiate
further steps in the matter. In view of the said direction,
the petition is allowed as follows:—
