In case, no fixation can be made by the deft. or fixation made by the deft.

In case of default, pltf. is entitled to recover the said arrears with running interest at the rate of 15%
per annum. Necessary measures would be taken by the court accordingly.
#. The learned counsel for the petitioner admits that as directed by the court below, the petitioner has not undertaken the exercise of calculating the amount of arrears of backwages as 75% as per the order of this court. Second part of the order has been made and in fact operative only in case the first part is not complied with. The calculation of arrears of backwages which are payable to the respondent as per the decision of this court in the second appeal have been determined by the petitioner but that determination has not been accepted by the executing court and a fresh direction has to be given. This exercise has to be undertaken and if it is not undertaken, it is sole responsibility of the petitioner. So far as the grievance of the petitioner regarding direction of payment of interest at the rate of 15% p.a. on the arrears of salary / back wages etc. it is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that interest has not been awarded by this court in the second appeal. However, that is not the matter which has to be decided at this stage. First the petitioner has to comply with the first part of the order of the executing court and submit its calculation. If the respondent is not satisfied with the calculation as made by petitioner, has has all the right to make his objection against the same and then the executing court will decide what actual amount is payable to the respondent towards the back wages in compliance of the order of this court. The question of awarding of interest shall be decided afresh by the executing court. The direction of the executing court to pay Rs.50,000/= to the respondent is modified to the extent that this amount be deposited in the executing court and the executing court is free to deposit this amount in the Fixed Deposit Receipt so that neither of the parties may suffer loss of interest thereon. The executing court has to pass order for disbursement of this amount at the time of passing final order in the execution application. Till that time, this amount shall remain in the F.D.R. This part of the order is not opposed by learned counsel for the respondent. The learned counsel for the petitioner prays for reasonable time for depositing Rs.50,000/= in the executing court.That prayer has also not been opposed. The petitioner shall deposit the amount of Rs.50,000/= in the executing court within a period of one month form the date of receipt of writ of this order or certified copy of this order, whichever is earlier. The first part of the impugned order has to be complied with and all necessary calculation of the amount has to be submitted to the executing court within a period of two months from the date of receipt of writ of this order or certified copy of the same, whichever is earlier. Subject to these observations, this civil revision application is disposed of accordingly with no order as to costs. Rule discharged.
