    Case Summary: WA/1530/2026 The Madras High Court dismissed Abirami Engineering Construction's appeal against a lower court order regarding payment delays for a Rs.55.65 crore dental college construction project. The court upheld the 10% interest rate (rejecting the appellant's claim for 18% commercial interest) and affirmed relegation of the price escalation dispute to civil court, finding it involves complex factual questions beyond writ jurisdiction despite the contract's dispute resolution clause mandating civil court for claims exceeding Rs.50,000.
