( 1. ) THE petitioner is mother of the respondent. She executed a registered sale-deed dated 24-1-1985 valued at Rs. 42,000/- in his favour in respect of a house. Afterwards, she instituted a suit against him for a declaration that the sale-deed was illegal and void on the allegations that it was got executed by the respondent without payment of consideration and by practising fraud upon her. The suit was valued at Rs. 42,000/- for the purpose of jurisdiction and fixed court-fee of Rs. 30/-only was paid thereon under Schedule II of Article, 17 of the Court-Fees Act. An objection was raised on behalf of the respondent that the plaint was deficiently stamped as the suit fell under section 7 (iv) (e) of the Court-Fees Act for the purpose of court-fees and ad valorem court-fees on Rs. 42,000/- was required to be paid thereon. The trial Court, by order dated 31-10-1985, upheld that contention of the respondent and ordered the petitioner to pay ad valorem court-fees on the value of the sale-deed. Being aggrieved thereby, the petitioner has preferred this revision petition.
