Summary: Delhi Financial Corporation v. B.B. Behel (1999) The Supreme Court allowed Delhi Financial Corporation's appeal, holding that the High Court wrongfully modified the final recovery decree by reducing interest rates and waiving interest for the period March 1986–March 1993. The Court upheld the 17.5% simple interest rate from the original decree but granted the respondent relief by reducing interest to 13.5% only for July 1986–June 1993, and offering an installment payment option of Rs. 1 lakh monthly (totaling Rs. 33,79,550.48) to prevent property auction.
