Recovery of payment

(Querist) 06 September 2011 This query is : Resolved 
sir...i have taken amount from X and Y private persons...they filed suit to recover money from salary...next actally right now my salary is less becaz already X recovery taking place from salary....next i have problems for paying rents,schoolfees....is there any law to stop recovery of second Y person....
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 06 September 2011
Recovery can be made only up to 1/3 of the salary so if both creditors (now decree-holders) have come in execution, court can decide their share to be recovered per month out of salary as proportionately.

In addition to the reply of Shri Makkad, I may add that in the the attachment of salary case DA, HRA, CCA will also be exempted from attachment.

Also, the decree of attachment of pay, if issued, can be executed only up to a total period of 24 months, not beyond that.
