Deposit of decretal amount by JD by way of stay of execution of decree does not amount payment in terms of order 21 rule 1 of cpc
judgments cited by the learned Counsel for the decree holder and particularly the judgment of the Apex Court in the case of PSL Ramanathan Chettiar and Ors. v. ORMPRM Ramanathan Chettiar (Supra) make it clear that the deposit of decretal amount by judgment debtor in the Court to purchase peace by way of stay of execution of the decree does not pass title in the deposited money in favor of the decree holder and as such, is not a payment in terms of Order 21 Rule 1 of the Code of Civil Procedure which prescribes specific modes for the satisfaction of a money decree.
