- (1.) THE petitioner obtained a decree for partition. In the final decree a Rs.16,202.97 was found to be due to the petitioner towards her share in the income properties. A decree was passed accordingly, but the court used the expression profits'which is really incorrect. A share of income from the properties which is due sharer cannot be treated as mesne profits. It is really a part of the divisible properties. Babburu Basavayya and others v. Babburu Guruvayya and another, A.I.R. 1951 Mad. Full Bench of this Court had discussed the matter and held that in a suit for partition no question of mesne profits within the meaning of O.20, Rule 12, C.P.C. but it is question of accounting under O.20, Rule 18, C.P.C, and it observed as follows: "THE profits accruing from the common properties pending a suit for partition, like properties themselves, are liable to be partitioned under the final decree even without specific prayer in the plaint for an account of such profits and a division thereof. THE right to an account of such profits is implicit in right to a share in the common properties and both rights have to be worked out and provided for in the final decree for partition.".
(2.) THUS the decree passed in favour of the petitioner for a sum of Rs.16,202.97 is a decree for a share in one of the items of properties viz., the income from the other properties. When the petitioner seeks to execute a decree and realise the amount there is no necessity to attach the properties allotted to the share of the accounting party. It is automatically charge over the properties which are allotted to the accounting party. Hence the decree can be executed straight away for realising the amount by bringing to sale the properties which are allotted to the accounting party under the decree. The court below is in error in dismissing the petition for execution on the ground that attachment had been prayed for by the petitioner. As there is a charge created by operation of law, there is no necessity for attaching the property. The first respondent has not yet been served in the revision petition. He is the first defendant in the suit who is the accounting party as per the decree, but he has sold property allotted to him to the second respondent herein. He remained ex parte in the lower court. The executing court was found that the second respondent will be liable as he has purchased the property from the first respondent subject to the liability of the first respondent. Hence there is no necessity for service of notice in the revision petition on first respondent. In so far as the second respondent is concerned he is found to be liable the executing court itself. In the result, the order of the executing court in E.P.No.210 of 1988 is set aside. The revision petition is allowed. E.P.No.210 of 1988 is remitted to the executing court. The executing court is directed to proceed further with the proceedings therein. There will be order as to costs. Petition allowed.;
