IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR
VINEET KOTHARI, J.
Navratan Singh Rajpurohit - Appellant
Vs.
Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. - Respondent
S.B. Civil First Appeal No.437/2011
Decided On : 1.3.2016
Civil Procedure Code – Section 96 - Auction - Suit land - First appeal under appellant/plaintiff against respondent/defendant Indian Oil Corporation Ltd., being aggrieved by the rejection of his suit for eviction and possession of the suit property - plaintiff/appellant purchased the said plot of land in a court auction, which auction of the suit land was held against the judgment debtor and defaulter one against whom decree in Civil Suit was passed by the learned A.D.J. No.2, Udaipur. In the Exectuion proceedings in Case said court auction was held by the concerned executing court. After the purchase of the said plot of land, the appellant/plaintiff has filed the present – Held, other clauses of the lease-deed, re-produced above, giving pre-emptive right to the lessee, IOCL, to pre-peremptorily extend such period of renewal even against the transferee and also to peremptorily purchase the leased premises, did not apply in the present case since the sale in question of the suit property was not by the original but by the court in a court auction held against said upon the said judgment debtor defaulting in satisfying of decree against him. Since, the lease-deed itself has been held by this Court to be not applicable and binding the present plaintiff/appellant, and, therefore, all these clauses are of little help to the defendant, IOCL in the present case against the appellant/plaintiff, not they were ever invoked by the lessee IOCL in the present case. Therefore, an assumed applicability thereof cannot be of any help to the defendant-IOCL - plaintiff purchaser was never put to notice of all these terms, nor he ever accepted the same. Unless and until a fresh lease-deed with same terms was executed between these parties also after the court auction, these terms of the lease-deed cannot be enforced against the present plaintiff purchaser - facts and the legal position in the present case, the present first appeal filed by the appellant/plaintiff, Navratan Singh Rajurohit, deserves to be allowed and eviction decree in favour of plaintiff deserves to be granted - first appeal of the plaintiff is allowed
