"The learned counsel for the defendants further submitted that the plaintiff failed to prove its source of money for lending such a huge amount to the defendant. As rightly pointed out by the learned counsel for the plaintiff, it is seen from Ex.P14, plaintiff received a sum of Rs.1,09,30,000/- from the sale of the land situated at east coast road in the financial year 2015 - 2016. As per the fixed assets shown in the Income Tax Returns the value of the plot at ECR was RS.26,42,000/-, Ex.P14, the profit earned by the plaintiff on sale of plot was shown as Rs.82,88,000/-.

Q25: So this is the alleged source of cash which was argued by the plaintiff recorded in Para 19 of the Hon'ble High Court Order extracted in Q.No.22 above, pertaining to the sale of ECR Land.

Name : Mr.Hitesh M Jain (PW 2) PW2 Cross Examination continuation by Mr.Vaibhav R. Venkatesh, the learned counsel for the Defendants 1 and 2.

Solemnly affirmed:

Q51: Please refer to your answer to the Q.No.48 and 50. With regard to the impugned suit transaction, do you admit that the Rs.1.09 odd crores from the sale of land in ECR made by the plaintiff was not the cash resource i.e., through mode of cash? A: Yes. I admit that the same was not the cash resource and was not received in cash.

Q52: The ECR land was sold by the plaintiff to one Mohan Mutha Exports Pvt Ltd. (Ex.D16) Are they in any way related to the plaintiff?

A: No. They are not related in any way to the plaintiff in any manner. They are known to the plaintiff only as purchasers of the ECR land.

Q53: Please refer to Para 16 & 17 of Ex.D18. Counter filed by the plaintiff. This is yet another theory which the plaintiff has come up with to substantiate the cash resource for the impugned suit transaction. Could you please tell the Court regarding how the plaintiff company generated and dealt with cash resources for the alleged Orakaddu land?

A: This is not a theory. All the transaction value are recorded in the ITR statement of financial year 2015- 2016. As far as the cash resource is concerned, the lands measuring about 4 acres were bought by the plaintiff company in the year 2014 by four separate sale deeds dated 30.10.2014. The plaintiff company had plotted two acres namely Survey No.94/3F4 and 94/3F5 by sub dividing the same into a layout namely Adarsh Nagar containing 45 plots, which was plotted after purchase by the plaintiff company. The plots were sold to the prospective purchasers, after sub dividing the plots, the individual sub divided plots were sold to individual purchasers. And the prospective purchasers were friends and relatives of the director of the plaintiff company.

The advances were received by the way of cash from the prospective purchasers, after sub division of the plots by the plaintiff company and the receipts for the advances were issued from 01.04.2015 to 18.06.2015. An amount of close to RS.2.86 crores were received from the prospective purchasers, as on 18.06.2015 and the amount of Rs.2.49 crores was given as a loan by the way of cash to A.K.B.Sons and relatives Pvt Ltd on 19.06.2015 for the suit transactions. All the transactions are disclosed in the ITR filed by the plaintiff company.

Q54: You have stated that the plaintiff purchased Orakaddu lands namely 4 acres on vide sale deed dated 30.10.2014 for survey no.94/3F. Has the plaintiff company filed these sale deeds and marked them before this Hon'ble Court as exhibits? A: No.

Q55: You have stated that "the plaintiff purchased Orakaddu lands namely 4 acres on vide sale deed dated 30.10.2014 for survey no.94/3F" and the same was sub divided by the plaintiff company into 4 sub divided survey numbers. Out of which 2 survey numbers namely 94/3F4 and 94/3F5 were plotted into 45 plots called Adarsh Nagar Housing layout. Has the plaintiff produced documents before this Court with regard to those sub divisions done as per law and marked the same?

A: No.

BEFORE THE ADDITIONAL MASTER I, HIGH COURT, MADRAS C.S.No.715 of 2015 Date : 28.01.2025 Time : 11.07 A.M.

Name : Mr.Hitesh M Jain (PW 2) PW2 Cross Examination continuation by Mr.Vaibhav R. Venkatesh, the learned counsel for the Defendants 1 and 2.

Solemnly affirmed:

Q56: Is it your case that the Orakaddu lands were sought to be subdivided and attempted to be sold, but later the subdivision plan was not sanctioned?

A: Yes. The lands were plotted out and were attempted to be sold with a Panchayat approval. Later on the prospective purchasers insisted for CMDA approval hence we had tried and enquired about the process of CMDA approval which was found to be time consuming and expensive. So, we decided to return back the money to the prospective purchasers.

Q57: According to the plaintiff, even without proper CMDA approval for the sub-division, the prospective purchasers paid advance monies to the plaintiff for the Orakkadu plots? A: Yes. The prospective purchasers had paid advances towards the purchase of plots and not the entire amount even without CMDA approval.

Q58: Additional Proof affidavit is shown to the witness. Have you averred this specifically with details in your proof affidavit especially with regard to the CMDA approval not being granted for sub-division?

A: I am not specifically mentioned CMDA. But I have said in para 8 of the additional proof affidavit that "We could not obtain approval for the said layout".

Q59: I put it to you that the Orakkadu land in Ponneri Taluk do not fall within the regulatory realm of CMDA. Do you admit? A: It does come under CMDA limits.

Q60: Please refer to the para 16 of the plaintiff's affidavit filed in CMP 1903 of 2024 in OSA (CAD) 95 of 2023 (Application for additional evidence). In para 16 the plaintiff has not mentioned specifically about CMDA approval not being granted for the subdivision for the alleged Orakkadu layout. Is it correct? A: Yes.

Q61: I put it to you that plaintiff's new theory about CMDA approval not being granted for the alleged subdivision of plots in the alleged Orakkadu layout, is nothing but an after thought and is complete falsehood without being supported by any documentary evidence?

A: I deny.

Q62: Please refer to your answer to the Q.No.53 and please this document.

(Witness is shown a document with regard to the Orakkadu lands spoken about by the plaintiff in answer to the q.no.53). The document is encumbrance certificate of the said Survey numbers. The date of registration of the sale deeds as seen in the encumbrance certificate is 31.08.2016. The documents number also show that the documents were officially registered in the plaintiff's name only on 31.08.2016 vide 4 registered sale deeds, and the title officially transferred and registered only on that date. What do you say?

A: Yes. This is the Encumbrance Certificate of the property of the Orakkadu land spoken by me in answer to Q.No.53. Yes. The plaintiff admits that the date of registration of the 4 sale deeds as shown in the documents is 31.08.2016. (per Court: The Encumbrance Certificate is marked as Ex.D19 and taken on file).

(Witness continues and adds) The four sale deeds were registered on 30.10.2014 and were referred to Section 47A of Stamp Act for deficit of Stamp duty collection and the same were forwarded to Department of Section 47A and we have paid the deficit stamp duty and collected back the documents.

Q63: Were the four sale deeds finally registered in the name of plaintiff only on 31.08.2016?

A: No. The four sale deeds were registered on 30.10.2014. However they were referred to section 47A of Stamp Act, as I have already answered in the previous question.

Q64: Please specify the four sale deeds document number? A: Documents Nos. registered with the SRO are 7736 of 2016, 7737 of 2016, 7738 of 2016 and 7739 of 2016.

Q65: I put it to you that the plaintiff could not have possibly registered document number series of the year 2016 in the year 2014 itself as the same defies logic?

A: I deny.

Q66: Please refer to your answer to the Q.no.53. According to the plaintiff the SRO assigned document numbers only in the year 2016 and the final sale was conclusively registered only on 31.08.2016, but yet the alleged prospective purchasers paid advance monies to the plaintiff's even without an assigned registration number for the sale deed of the plaintiff?

A: No. As per my previous answer, the documents were registered in the year 2014 and the lands were plotted subsequently to be sold to the prospective purchasers and the advances were received from the prospective purchasers. The four sale deeds were cleared only in the year 2016 and accordingly the SRO has assigned the sale deed numbers.

Q67: A document is shown to the witness. This is the Power of Attorney executed by the plaintiff company with regard to the same Orakkadu lands document no.8145 of 2019 dated 27.08.2019, in favour of one Salem Stainless steel suppliers private ltd. Please refer to internal page 2 of this document for this very same Orakkadu lands wherein the four sale deeds with the same document numbers (as mentioned by you) are referred to by the plaintiff company as sale deed dated 31.08.2016 only and not 30.10.2014. Is it correct? A: Yes.

(per Court: The Power of Attorney dated 27.08.2019 is marked as Ex.D20 and taken on file).

Witness Adds: As per my previous answer the documents were registered in the year 2014 and the deficit of stamp duty were cleared in the year 2016. The SRO had assigned running document number for the year 2016 which is nothing but 7736 of 2016, 7737 of 2016, 7738 of 2016 and 7739 of 2016.

Q68: Please refer to what you added in the previous answer. Is it mentioned anywhere in the document, Ex.D20?

A: No.

Time: 12.15 P.M Taken down in open Court, read over and the same is admitted by the witness to be correct and signed before me. ADDITIONAL MASTER - I
