ORDER

This Civil Revision Petition was filed by the 2nd defendant to strike off the plaint filed in O.S.No. 429 of 2019, on the file of the Principal District Munsiff, Alandur.

2. The 1st respondent is the plaintiff who filed the suit in OS.No.429 of 2019 seeking for the relief of declaration to declare the sale deed executed in favour of the 2nd defendant dated 18.11.2014 as null and void and not binding on the plaintiff and for permanent injunction.

3. During the pendency of this CRP, the parties were able to reach a settlement and a joint memo of compromise was filed by the petitioner/2nd defendant, 1st respondent/plaintiff and 2nd respondent/1st defendant. The joint memo of compromise has been signed by the parties and their respective counsel.

4. In view of the above, this CRP can be disposed of by recording the joint memo of compromise with a further direction to the learned Principal District Munsiff, Alandur, to pass a decree in Os.No.429 of 2019, in terms of the joint memo of compromise.

5. The relevant clauses in the joint memo of compromise dated 6.10.2026, are extracted hereunder:

9. The petitioner and the 1st and the 2nd respondent had detailed discussions with supporting documents, after which an understanding and consensus was arrived and they are as follows:-

• With supporting documents it was explained to 1st and 2nd respondents herein as to how the petitioner is now the absolute owner of the subject property viz., land measuring 5400 sq.ft with building with ground floor measuring 1000 sq.ft and 1st floor measuring 700 sq.ft situated at Plot bearing No.C-16, Door No. 3/2, Thiruvalluvar Nagar Main Road, Alandur, Chennai - 600 016 comprised in S.No. 25/20, Paimash No. 861-863,Approved L.P.H./D.T.P.No. 17/64, T.S.No.62, Adambakkam Village, Saidapet Taluk (now Alandur Taluk), Kancheepuram district (now Chennai District) within the registration district of Chennai South and that his title is beyond question, which was understood and accepted by both the 1st and the 2nd respondents.

• With supporting Bank statements and statement of accounts a thorough reconciliation of accounts was presented to them after which they agreed to the statement of the petitioner which showed a balance of Rs.50,00,000/- (Rupees Fifty Lakhs only) to be paid to the 1st respondent viz., Chellamuthu, which was withheld on the consent of the 1st respondent (Chellamuthu) on account of pending cases.

With respect to the accounts matter the following points were crystallized:

a) That post reconciliation of accounts with the aid of statement of accounts and bank statements, Mrs.V.Rajkumari wife of the petitioner herein, has nothing to do with the crux of the transactions and also that Mrs.V.Rajkumari does not owe in her personal capacity as a debtor any money by any means in any manner to anyone of the 1st and 2nd respondents herein or anyone claiming through them.

b) That how after receiving Rs.1,75,50,000/- (Rupees One Crore Seventy Five Lakhs Fifty Thousand only) as said earlier in paragraph 2 in the account of Mrs.V.Rajkumari, wife of the petitioner herein, an amount of Rs.1,76,95,000/- (Rupees One Crore Seventy Six Lakhs Ninety Five Thousand only) was sent back to the account of Vimala and her nominees (Jayalakshmi, Kumaravel, Varalakshmi, Venmathi & Sanjeevi) as stipulated by the 2nd respondent (Vimala) from the accounts of the petitioner and his wife Mrs.V.Rajkumari, thereby paying an excess amount of Rs.1.45 Lakhs which was not claimed by them.

c) That how after Rs.1,11,00,000/- (Rupees One Crore and Eleven Lakhs only) was transferred to the account of the petitioner herein (A.Vimal Chand) and his wife Mrs.V.Rajkumari, a total amount of Rs.61,00,000/- (Rupees Sixty One Lakhs only) on various dates was sent back to the

Joint account of 1st respondent (Chellamuthu & her mother Mrs.Loganayaki) from the accounts of petitioner herein and his wife Mrs. V.Rajkumari leaving a balance of Rs.50,00,000/- (Rupees Fifty Lakhs only) to be paid after closure of court case as explained above. The correctness of the 2 accounts was understood and accepted by the 1st and the 2nd respondents.

d) In view of the long delay of the payment of Rs.50,00,000/- (Rupees Fifty Lakhs only) on account of pendency of cases on 07.08.2026 it was mutually agreed by all the parties through one Mr.E. Guna, Son in law of the 1st respondent herein (Mrs.Chellamuthu), that a sum of Rs.2,00,00,000/- (Rupees Two Crores only) be paid, as full and final settlement, by the petitioner herein. Based on the request of the 1st & 2nd respondents, the said full and final settlement is being made as follows: > Rs. 1 Crore to Mrs. Chellamuthu (1st respondent) > Rs.75 Lakhs to Mrs.Lakshmi (daughter of Mrs. Chellamuthu &
