ORDER
When the application came up for hearing on 21.11.2025, this Court passed the following order:
"This application has been filed under section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 seeking for a direction to the respondents to furnish security for a sum of Rs.3,70,832/- based on the award passed on 11.08.2025.
2. It is brought to the notice of this Court that the vehicle has already been seized and thereafter the award has been passed and in spite of the same, there is a total due of Rs.3,70,832/- payable by the respondents.
3. Taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the materials placed before this Court, there shall be a direction to the respondents to furnish security for a sum of Rs.3,70,832/- before the next date of hearing.
4. Notice to the respondents returnable by 17.12.2025. private notice is also permitted. Post on 17.12.2025."
2. Private notice said to have been sent to the respondents has been received and Affidavit of Service to that effect has also been filed. Despite service of notice on the respondents and their names being printed in the cause list today, there is no appearance for them either in person or through counsel. Hence, service on the respondents is deemed to be sufficient.
3. Heard the learned counsel for the applicant and carefully perused the materials available on record.
4. Considering the fact that there is already an Award passed in favour of the applicant and respondents have not chosen to furnish security that was directed by this Court, by order dated 21.11.2025, this Court is inclined to pass an order attaching the property morefully described in the schedule to the Judge's Summons as prayed for.
5. Necessary communication shall be made to the concerned Sub Registrar Office to effect necessary entry in the encumbrance certificate.
6. This application is accordingly allowed. msr 05-01-2026 Index:Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Internet:Yes
