Case Overview

  • Applicant: T Hemamalini (wife of M.S. Thiruvikraman), represented by counsel Mr Suresh J.
  • Respondents: Radiance Realty Developers India Limited (authorized signatory K Kannadasan), Krishna Senthil Kumar, and State Bank of India Retail Assets Central Processing Centre, represented by counsel Ms Rupikaa Srinivasan.
  • The application was filed under Order XIV Rule 8 of the O.S. Rules read with Section 148 of the Code of Civil Procedure, seeking a three‑month extension to pay the balance amount of Rs 21,00,000.
  • The dispute originates from arbitration awards (Arb. A. Comm No. 56 of 2023 and Arb. A. Comm No. 490 of 2024) ordering the applicant to pay Rs 21 lakh.

The applicant previously requested six months, which the court deemed unreasonable.

  • Payment must be made on or before 25‑09‑2026.
  • The applicant must appear for compliance reporting on 28‑09‑2026 at 2:15 pm.
