Ram Shankar Das and Ors v. Sushil Verma

O R D E R %

12.11.2025

¶1The petitioner has filed the present revision petition under Section 115 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 ["CPC"], against an order dated

17.04.2025 passed by the Trial Court, by which the suit instituted by the respondent was partly decreed under Order XII Rule 6 of CPC.

¶2At the outset, it may be noted that a revision petition is not maintainable against a decree. The appropriate remedy available to the petitioner lies elsewhere in law.

¶3During the course of hearing, Mr. Anuraag Mehta, learned counsel for the petitioner, submitted that the petitioner had initially preferred a Regular First Appeal before this Court on 07.07.2025, which came to be converted into a revision petition pursuant to an objection raised by the Registry. This is a digitally signed order. 4. The aforesaid position is, however, disputed.

¶5Be that as it may, without entering into the said controversy, it is evident that the present revision petition is not maintainable under Section 115 of CPC.

¶6The revision petition is, accordingly, dismissed as not maintainable, with liberty to the petitioner to avail appropriate remedies in accordance with law. All pending applications also stand disposed of.

¶7As regards the question of limitation for filing the appeal, the petitioner shall be at liberty to take appropriate steps in such proceedings, including to seek the benefit of Section 14 of the Limitation Act, 1963, for the period during which the present revision petition remained pending before this Court. PRATEEK JALAN, J NOVEMBER 12, 2025 SS/SD/ This is a digitally signed order.
