Delhi HC Dismisses Landlord Appeal Against SBI

Key Points
- Delhi High Court dismissed the landlord’s plea against SBI, stating that the merits of a judgment cannot be revisited beyond the narrow scope permitted by Order XLVII Rule 1 CPC.
- The court also denied the claim for post‑vacation interest under Section 34 CPC, relying on the Supreme Court’s guidance in *Lilly Thomas v.*.
- The ruling reaffirms the limits of appellate review and the approach to interest after a decree is vacated.

Implications
- Parties must respect the procedural boundaries of review; further challenges on the same merits are unlikely to succeed.
- Future cases will likely follow this precedent when assessing interest claims after decree vacation.
