providing an opportunity, and it is currently under challenge
before this Hon’ble Tribunal.
4. During the pendency of this S.A., the amount claimed as per
the Possession Notice is Rs.20,64,818/- as of 15.09.2022. Out

5. When the matter was called up for hearing by this Hon’ble
Tribunal on 10.03.2025, the applicant made a prayer to this
Hon’ble Tribunal to grant 2 months to settle the entire amount
as of date to the respondent bank.

consider the prayer as stated supra. As ordered by this Hon’ble
Tribunal, the applicant herein has filed an affidavit to pay the
balance amount within the stipulated time as prayed for.
