Yes, it is very much justified. Ask the court to mention the rate of interest to be counted additionally till the decreetal money s recovered from the Judgement Debtor.

Court may not award demanded rate of interest. If aggrieved, may go for appeal.

Mr. Rajan Chopra,
Your initial query was about the permissibility of interest with effect from the date of cheque or from the date of institution of suit.
I asked you about the opinion of your own lawyer. But you have avoided to reply that. Instead of replying, you have posted supplementary query, which is totally different than your original query.
You have not raised a query about the rate of interest that the court has denied, rather than sticking to your old query. I hope, you can well understand that the period of interest and rate of interest are two different issues, while you are avoiding to state your own lawyer's opinion.
From all these instances, can you please state, what actually is your problem and why it should not be treated as an academic query there being no real problem with you?
The question arises, what facts you are trying to hide from the experts and why, when you want help from them to solve your problem? You can't expect right opinion from experts by merely using CAPITAL LETTERS to express your half-baked problem. Discussion of facts of the issue is quite necessary.

The author should answer the queries raised by expert Mr. Dhingra, because such attitude is unethical. The querists cannot take the experts so cheaply just because it is a free service portal.

Sir my counsel said that the transaction is not a commercial one and the demanded rate of interest was neither agreed nor settled.It was simply a hand loan

A hand loan is recoverable with interest or not?
