2014, whereby the learned trial Court, in execution of judgment and decree dated 27.09.2018, passed in Civil Suit-11B of 2014, warrant for attachment of movable properties of the judgment debtor has been issued.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the respondents prosecuted a Civil Suit-11B of 2014 before the learned trial Court for recovery of Rs.2,69,650/-, with respect to their business transaction. The said Civil Suit was decreed in favour of the plaintiffs/respondents vide judgment and decree dated 27.09.2018.

He would also submit that while passing the judgment and decree, learned trial Court has specifically ordered that the amount of Rs.2,69,650/- is recoverable from the properties of the firm, or the properties of its proprietor Banshilal Dulani, and it is specifically observed in para-21 of the judgment that the amount is not recoverable from the present petitioner-Abhishek Dulani @ Raja Dulani. He would further submit that the respondents have filed an execution application in which the petitioner is shown as proprietor of the firm. After service of notice, petitioner appears in the execution proceeding and raised an objection on 28.08.2023 (Annexure P7) that after death of his father Banshilal Dulani, firm was dissolved, and he has not inherited the property of the firm.
