Rajeshwari vs Arumugam — 463/2024

Case 463/2024 – Rajeshwari v. Arumugam (Judgment Summary) The Subordinate Judge at Vandavasi decreed the plaintiff's mortgage recovery suit, holding the defendant liable to repay Rs.2,00,000/- principal with interest. The court rejected the defendant's claim that only Rs.1,50,000/- was advanced, finding the registered mortgage deed presumptively valid and the defendant's defense unsupported. The court also rejected the defendant's claim of full repayment in February 2022, noting the "discharge" consent deed was executed two years later with inconsistencies. However, the court deducted Rs.60,000/- in interest payments the defendant had made and awarded the plaintiff Rs.5,63,467/- total with 9% annual interest from suit filing until decree date, and 6% thereafter, along with suit costs and property sale provisions upon default.
