A settlement was arrived at between them and the decree was adjusted. Certain amount was deposited in court for payment to the decree-holder towards the full satisfaction of the decree. The applicant in this Civil Revision No. 1421/78, i.e., Dey's Medical Stores Private Ltd., who holds a money decree against the firm S. S. Dhanyakumar Co. and its partners objected to that settlement. This objection was finally rejected by this court, vide order dated April 27, 1977, in Civil Revision No. 774 of 1975.

That, however, is not the case here. have earlier shown that the recovery is sought to be effected against the individuals, may be that some of them were the partners of the firm, M/s. Dhanyakumar Dharamdas and Company. The result would be that out of the amount of Rs. 12,341, the Department is entitled to get Rs. 6,170.50 (half share of Abhaykumar) and only Rs. 425 towards the dues against Dhanyakumar total Rs. 6,595.50. The lower court missed this aspect of the case, and, therefore, committed an error in allowing the Department to take away the entire amount. The lower court's order, therefore, needs modification to that extent. On behalf of M/s. Dey's Medical Stores Private Ltd. it ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
