Perjury-making contradictory statements under affidavit amounts to perjury

lalit (Querist) 24 April 2012 This query is : Resolved
IN A TITLE SUIT (SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE), THE DEFENDANT IN HIS WRITTEN OBJECTION STATEMENT AGAINST AWARDED AD-INTERIM INJUNCTION AND IN HIS WRITTEN STATEMENT CRAVES LEAVE FOR FILING AN AGREEMENT.
THE PLAINTIFF FILES AFFIDAVIT IN REPLY THAT THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT IS WITH THE DEFENDANT.
THE DEFENDANT DOES NOT CONTEST.
THE LANGUAGE IN DEFENDANT'S W.O.S AND W.S. IS "THE DEFENDANT CRAVES LEAVE FOR FILING THE AGREEMENT", BUT DURING HEARING OF INJUNCTION PETITION WHEN THE LEARNED JUDGE ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO PRODUCE THE AGREEMENT, THE DEFENDANT SUBMITTED ANOTHER AFFIDAVIT STATING THAT HE ONLY HAS PHOTOCOPY OF THE AGREEMENT AND THE ORIGINAL IS WITH THE PLAINTIFF.
DOES MAKING CONTRADICTORY STATEMENTS UNDER AFFIDAVIT AMOUNTS TO PERJURY?
WHAT ARE THE STEPS THAT THE PLAINTIFF CAN TAKE?
THE DEFENDANT IS JUST MISGUIDING THE Ld. cOURT AND BUYING TIME.
