( 2 ) PLAINTIFFs suit was decreed for a sum of Rs. 10,000,00 on a plaint presented on 26th of September, 1964. No interest pendente lite or future was awarded. The defendant preferred an appeal before this Court and the plaintiff filed a cross-objection praying for interest pendente lite and future at the rate of Rs. 3. 00 per cent, per annum. The learned Single Judge dismissed the defendants appeal, disallowed interest pendente lite but awarded future interest at the rate of Rs. 6. 00 per cent, per annum, from the date of the decree, namely, 26-9-1967 till the date of payment. The defendant now prefers an appeal on the ground urged by mr.
