Padmavathy Panel Boards Limited (in Liquidation) and M/s. Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board, Bangalore</h3> The court concluded that the auction purchaser must pay the outstanding balance, including interest, as claimed by KIADB from the original lessee. It ... - Issues:1. Interpretation of terms and conditions of sale regarding outstanding dues payable to KIADB.2. Validity of KIADB's claim for additional payment based on allotment conditions.3. Dispute over the amount payable by the auction purchaser for the land.4. Determination of rights conveyed to the auction purchaser under the lease-cum-sale deed.5. Resolution of the controversy regarding the payment of outstanding dues to KIADB.Analysis:1. The judgment pertains to a dispute arising from the sale of assets of a company in liquidation. The Official Liquidator sought permission to sell the company's properties, and after a bidding process, the applicant emerged as the highest bidder with an offer of Rs. 2.20 crore. However, a subsequent demand by KIADB for Rs. 69.22 lakh, purportedly due for land valuation, created a controversy regarding the terms of the sale and the obligations of the purchaser.2. KIADB contended that the auction purchaser must pay the difference between the prevailing land price and the amount already paid by the original lessee, as per the allotment conditions. The Board insisted that without settling the dues, the sale deed execution and property conveyance could not proceed, justifying their claim based on internal audit calculations and allotment terms.3. The applicant argued against KIADB's claim, highlighting that the lease-cum-sale deed remained in force, and there was no indication of termination. The applicant disputed the additional demand, emphasizing that the auction participation was based on existing terms and conditions, not on current land prices. The applicant questioned the validity of KIADB's demand for a substantial sum beyond the initial dues claimed.4. The Official Liquidator acknowledged the rights conveyed to the auction purchaser under the lease-cum-sale deed, confirming that possession was taken under the existing terms without lease termination. The Liquidator supported the applicant's position, indicating that the auction sale was conducted based on the rights held by the company in liquidation.5. Ultimately, the court resolved the issue by determining that the auction purchaser was liable to pay the remaining balance amount, including interest, as claimed by KIADB from the original lessee. The court directed the applicant to settle the dues, after which the KIADB and the Official Liquidator were instructed to execute and register the sale deed promptly, ensuring the conveyance of the property to the auction purchaser within a specified timeframe. The judgment clarified the obligations of the parties involved and provided a resolution to the dispute over outstanding dues and property conveyance.
