2019 (9) TMI 1629 - DELHI HIGH COURTSeeking leave to appeal - Dishonor of Cheque - It was the respondent’s case that their accounts had been settled as he had returned certain products, which had been supplied to him and the credit for the same had not been accounted for - HELD THAT:- As per the books of the petitioner, a sum of ₹1,49,569/- was outstanding as on 11.10.2012. However, the petitioner waited for over two years to fill an amount of ₹2,00,000/- in the said blank cheque and deposited the same. According to the petitioner, the amount of ₹1,49,569/- had increased to ₹2,16,247/- as on the date of depositing the cheque, on account of interest calculated at the rate of 24% per annum - The trial court had noted that there was no contract or arrangement whereby the respondent had agreed to pay any interest. The petitioner had been unable to establish that the cheque of ₹2,00,000/- had been issued by the respondent against any such liability. Even if it is accepted that the sum of ₹1,49,569/- was due from the respondent as on 11.10.2012, as deposed on behalf of the petitioner, the liability of ₹2,00,000/- was not established. Petition dismissed.
