Para 9: That the contents of paragraph No. 9 of the plaint are wrong and denied.

7.That the defendant has admitted, clearly, comprehensively, unequivocally and unconditionally, the facts stated in paragraphs 6, 8, 12, 13 and 14 of the para-wise reply of his written statement. There is, rather, a clear admission of the contents of these paragraphs; the said fact constitutes an unequivocal admission on the part of the defendant and is a matter of record.
1.It is submitted that, as set out in the written statement of the defendant, the answering defendant, in the month of March, Year of cash payment, paid an amount of Rs. Cash payment amount (₹) in cash to the plaintiff at Place of cash payment and requested the plaintiff to return the cheque, so that the balance amount of Rs. Balance amount (₹) could be paid to him through RTGS.
2.It is well settled that where an admission of the payment of an amount of Rs. Cash payment amount (₹) in cash to the plaintiff at Place of cash payment, duly acknowledged by the defendant, is established, the Court can pass a decree in favour of the plaintiff as against the defendant. In this behalf, [Section 91](https://indiankanoon.org/doc/205529/) and [Section 92](https://indiankanoon.org/doc/1790262/) of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 need no elaboration. The written statement thus discloses no defence, and the pleas raised therein have been set up only in an attempt to protract and delay the trial. The defendant has no defence, and the pleas set up by the defendant are illusory and moonshine.
3.It is thus clear that the plaintiff has made out a complete case and is entitled to his amount of Rs. Decreed amount claimed (₹) forthwith, and the plaintiff's case stands admitted expressly and impliedly, as stated hereinabove. The plaintiff is therefore entitled to judgment forthwith.
4.That the present application is made bona fide and is based upon the admissions contained in the written statement of the defendant.
5.That it is just and proper that, in order to save costs and the judicial time of this Hon'ble Court, the present application be considered.

PRAYER

In view of the above, the plaintiff, on the basis of the admissions aforesaid, most respectfully prays as under:

(a)Pass a decree for recovery of an amount of Rs. Decree amount claimed (₹) in favour of the plaintiff and against the defendant, in the interest of justice.
(b)Award the costs of the suit to the plaintiff; and
(c)Pass any other and further relief in favour of the plaintiff and against the defendant as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper, in the interest of justice.
