JUDGMENT

The petitioners have approached this Court challenging Ext.P6 Order issued in S.A.No.421/2014 by the Debts Recovery Tribunal, Ernakulam.

2. The above order was based on a concession given to the parties, by the Debts Recovery Tribunal. As per the said order, the petitioners were directed to pay the amount due to the Bank in three equal monthly instalments. The petitioner's case is that he was offered by his brother, to wipe off the entire liability. On account of the accident met by the brother, he is unable to adhere the time schedule as per the order in Ext.P6.

3. The learned counsel for the Bank submits that the petitioners shall discharge the entire liability in six instalments.

4. Taking note of the facts and circumstances, this Court is of the view that the following directions are issued :

O.P.(D.R.T) No.99 of 2015 -2i) The petitioners shall discharge the entire liability in seven equal monthly instalments from 15th of every month.

ii) The 1st instalment shall be paid on or before 31.08.2015.

iii) If the petitioners commit default in remitting any one of the instalments, the respondents are free to proceed against the petitioners.

The original petition is disposed of as above. No costs.
