So, the interest can be calculated for the purpose of preparing the resolution plan at simple rate of 12% per annum on the defaulted amount on the basis of the terms of the loan agreement dated 03.03.2015. If the petitioner intends to claim the interest at the higher rate or compounded interest, he may have the remedy for such a relief before the Civil Court.
