JUDGMENT :

1. Petitioner-Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. has filed this Revision Application challenging judgment and order dated 28 February 2024 passed by the Appellate Bench of the Small Causes Court in Misc. Appeal No. 47 of 2023. The Appellate Bench has not reduced the quantum of mesne profits determined by the Trial Court @ Rs. 2,41,691/- per month, but has reduced the rate of interest from 10% p.a. to 6% p.a. However, the Appellate Bench has modified the direction of the Small Causes Court which had restricted payment of mesne profits till passing order dated 15 October 2022 and has directed that the same be paid till delivery of possession of the suit premises. Applicant is thus aggrieved by non-reduction of quantum of mesne profits and in granting relief to Respondents by extending the period of payment from 15 October 2022 till date of delivery of possession though Respondents had not challenged the Trial Court’s Order.
