It appears that thereafter the matter appeared on 25th July, 2024 when the advocate appearing for the applicants sought time to take instructions as to whether the applicants were in a position to deposit the balance amount.

Mr.Deshmukh, learned counsel appearing for the applicants submits that the applicants have deposited a sum of Rs.17 lacs being their share of the amount to be paid to the first informant. However, since the order records of sum of Rs.32,25,000/- to be payable, he will take instructions from his clients - the applicants whether they are ready to deposit the balance amount of Rs.15,25,000/- or else he will make necessary statement to that effect if the amount is not paid. 5.

Stand over to 25th March, 2025. Matter to come up under the caption of 'Urgent Circulation'.
