Ex-parte decree would not be communicated to the Respondent by the court. It is the Petitioner who should communicate the decree in his own interest. In an ex-parte decree, the Respondent choses not to participate in the proceedings even though he has been told to be present in the court and answer the court. It is not a mere absence of the Respondent but an attitude come what may.

I do agree with Mr Raghav

If a respondent does not want to avail the opportunity of hearing afforded to him, the law presumes that he has opted to suffer its results. The duty of the Court is to afford an opportunity to the respondent before deciding a matter and if he decides not to avail the opportunity no obligation is cast on the Court to intimate the respondent after deciding the matter.
