The opposite party on 15.02.2011 paid Rs. 1,00,000/- through  bank draft to the complainant. The opposite party on 15.03.2011 paidRs. 1,25,000/- vide bank draft.  The complaintwas  adjourned to 28.04.2011for  balance payment.  On28.04.2011 the parties weredirected to submit their calculation supported by affidavits.  The parties submitted their  calculations. As per the order dated 09.11.2010 a sum of Rs 1,20,000/-  and interest @ 12% p.a.  from February 2010  remained unpaid by the opposite partysto the complainant.  Therefore, it is evident that as per the settlement dated 09.11.2010 the amount payable by  the opposite party remainedRs. 1,20,000/-, interest @ 12% p.a.  on total sum of Rs. 3,45,000/-( Rs. 1,00,000/- paid on 15.02.2011 and Rs. 1,25,000/- on 15.03.2011).  The opposite party has failed to pay the agreed /settled remaining amount of Rs. 1,20,000/- and interest,therefore, there is unfair trade practice and deficiency in service on the part  of the opposite party.

Hence we direct the opposite party to pay Rs. 1,20,000/- with interest  @ 12% p.a.  from February 2010 till actual  realization  and pay interest  @ 12% on total sum of Rs. 3,45,000/- from February ,2010 to 15.03.2011 .
