JUDGMENT

The limited relief sought for by the petitioner is for an opportunity for repayment of the entire liability due from him in instalments. The petitioner was a subscriber to a chitty. But soon, he committed default in repayment and hence, revenue recovery proceedings were initiated against him.

2. The learned Standing Counsel, upon instructions, submitted that, after adjusting the amounts paid by the petitioner, the total amount due is Rs.1,22,12,425/- as on 28.02.2026. It was also submitted that respondents are willing to accept repayment in reasonable instalments.

3. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for respondents, I am of the view that the writ petition can be disposed of with a direction granting an instalment facility to the petitioner.

Accordingly, there will be a direction to the respondents to accept the entire amount of Rs.1,22,12,425/- due from the petitioner, along with future interests and costs in 25 equated monthly instalments, with the first instalment payable on 24.03.2026 and the remaining instalments on the 24^th of every succeeding month. Coercive proceedings initiated against the petitioner shall be kept i
