When you need it

An application to a civil court to enforce a decree you have already won, when the other side has not obeyed it. The court can attach and sell the judgment-debtor's property, attach a bank account or salary, deliver possession of property, or in some cases order arrest (section 51 and Order XXI of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908).

The application states the particulars the court needs: the suit, the decree, any appeal, what has been paid, any earlier application, the amount due, and the mode of enforcement asked for. A decree cannot be enforced for ever; there is a time limit, so file without delay. Some property and part of a salary are protected by law from attachment, and the court decides what can be taken. Court papers are usually filed through an advocate, who also files a vakalatnama; this form prepares the draft for them to settle. The court fee on an execution application was not confirmed here; ask the filing counter. Not for: getting a decree in the first place (use the matching suit in this library), or a settlement outside the court.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

No stamp-paper duty is payable on the pleading itself; it bears the court's own court-fee stamp. The court-fee figure for this kind of filing in Punjab and in Chandigarh was not confirmed here: ask the court's filing counter (Nazarat) or your advocate for the amount on your valuation, and for the vakalatnama stamps if an advocate is engaged.

Registration

Not registrable: a court paper is not an instrument under section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908. Any decree that results has its own registration or mutation step, if one is needed.

Notarisation

The paper is verified by the party and signed; it is not notarised. Any separate affidavit filed with it (the General Court Affidavit in this library will do) is sworn before an Oath Commissioner or Notary.

Witnesses

None required for the paper itself. Evidence is led later, in the court's own procedure.
