Nandabai Vinod Meshram vs Ramesh Bhagwan Wanjari and other 1 Advocate - Rahangdale Madhuri R. — 11/2024

Summary: The court disposed of the defendant's application seeking an inquiry into court fees under Section 8 of the Maharashtra Court Fees Act, 1959. The court found that the plaintiff undervalued the suit by using a fixed Rs. 1,000 valuation for declaration and injunction reliefs, when the relief of possession requires market value-based valuation under Section 6(v) of the Act. Accordingly, the court directed the plaintiff to re-value the suit property according to market value and pay requisite court fees within 30 days, with failure to comply resulting in rejection of the plaint under Order VII Rule 11 of the CPC.
