This query is : Resolved
Vide an Order passed by NCDRC, the O.P, a builder, was directed to pay Rs.50 Lakhs + interest to us. O.P filed SLP in SCI against above order and the following direction was issued by the Hon'ble Court: "We direct learned counsel for the petitioners to deposit a sum of Rs.50,00,000/- (Rupees Fifty Lakhs only) in this Registry within a period of two weeks from today. Upon such deposit being made, issue notice returnable in the month of February, 2015. Dasti service, in addition, is permitted"
My questions are as under:
1.Does the order imply that the SLP filed by the Petitioner has been allowed and that they may file an appeal?
2.What happens if the amount is not deposited in the registry within the prescribed period?
3. If the SLP is dismissed will the amount be released directly to us?
4. The Hon'ble Judge verbally mentioned that he will 'execute' on the next hearing date - what did he mean?

On facts stated SLP is subject to compliance of deposit, any failure in making deposit would lead to dismissal of case.
The judge might have meant to release the
deposit amount in favour of respondent, in case petitioner looses his case.
