SANJEEV NARULA
Afcons Infrastructure Ltd – Appellant
Versus
Major Balwan Singh – Respondent
JUDGMENT
Sanjeev Narula, J. - This judgement shall decide the present appeal, which arises from the judgement and decree passed by Additional District Judge, Delhi on 27th January, 2011, and amended on 18th July, 2011 [hereinafter, "impugned judgement"]. The decree mandates the Appellants to pay to the Respondent an amount of Rs. 4,08,715/-, along with an interest rate of 12% per annum, covering both the pendente lite period and future accruals. The Appellants contest the findings and conclusions of the lower court, asserting that they are based on erroneous facts, and disregard the apparent lack of evidence in support of the Respondent's claims.
