Suit for Means Profit

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 18 February 2011 This query is : Resolved 
Dear Experts please answer my query,

Suit was decreed against the defendant and ordered for delivery of possession, but no prayer and order for means-profit,

1.Can the plaintiff claim means-profit by filing another suit?.

2.Can means profit claimable on property by which the defendant did not made any profit?

Thanks in advance.
Parveen Kr. Aggarwal (Expert) 18 February 2011
No. If the relief of mesne profits is either not claimed in the suit for possession or claim made but not granted by the court, no second suit for mesne profits can be filed. The mesne profits are granted for unauthorised use and occupation of the premises and not for the profits made by the defendant.

Thanking you one and all, for your opinion.
H. S. Thukral (Expert) 22 February 2011
You can claim mesne profits from the date of decree to the date of possession as it will be separate cause of action.
