The appellant succeeded in the suit for specific performance before the Principal Sub Judge, Kollam. He obtained a relief of performance of agreement of sale. The decretal portion however was onerous and looked as inequitable for the plaintiff, as he was burdened with payment of 9% quarterly compound interest from the date fixed for performance of the agreement till he makes deposit of the balance consideration before the court. Accordingly, the plaintiff filed R.F.A.No.412/2016.
