Drt liability of guarantor

A bank has filed a recovery suit with the DRT. I was a promotor/Director/Guarantor in the company. The total liability of the banks and FIs was 25 Crores. They liquidated the company for 3 Crores and auctioned my house for 5 Crores.

My guarantee to the bank was for Rs.1 Crore. Can I move the high court to release my Guarantee as the bank has taken my home which was not a collateral and have recovered more than my guaranteed amount. The DRT is very Pro-bank so I dont want to approach them as I wont get any releif from them.

Please guide me.

 

Thank You.

THE GUARANTEE GENERALLY WORDED BY BANKERS AS PERSONAL GUARANTEE. ALSO THE COLLAT3ERAL SECURITIES ARE TAKEN BY BANK.

SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF GUARANTEE AN APPEAL CAN BE MADE TO H.C. AGAINST THE ORDER OF D.R.T. IF ANY OF THE MEMBERS OF HINDU UNDIVIDED FAMILY ARE ADVERSLY AFFECTED BY THE BANK TAKING OVER THE HOUSE FOR A GUARANTEE OF RS.1 CR THEY ARE ALSO HAVING RIGHT OF APPEAL.

IF DOCUMENTS ARE SENT DETAILED OPINION CAN BE GIVEN

You can ask for the true copy of the guarantee deed executed by you from the bank through a letter of request/RTI and after ensuring that your guarantee is of Rs.1 crore only, you can ask the bank for remitting the sales proceeds of your house (less guaranteed amount of Rs.1 Crores) to you immediately  WITH INTEREST, failing which you have the option of approaching Banking Ombudsman/RBI/HC
