Legal Battle Resolved: Contractual Breach Leads to Refund, No Extra Interest Due to Appellant's Questionable Conduct

April 25, 2025

Case Laws     Indian Laws     SC

SC held that Respondent No. 1 breached multiple contractual obligations in the allotment agreement, including failure to secure statutory approvals and execute sub-lease documents. The court ordered Respondent No. 1 to refund Rs. 28,11,31,939 to the Appellant. However, due to the Appellant's questionable conduct and violation of the "clean hands" doctrine, the court denied any additional interest on the refunded amount. The impugned High Court judgment was set aside, and the appeal was disposed of, with Respondent No. 1 directed to refund the first installment without interest.
