Legal Question in Banking Law in India

Attatching retirement benefits

One of our borrowers is due to

retire about 10 years hence. Is it

possible now to file a suit and file a

petition for attatchment of

retirement benefits of the borrower

in that suit. We are not sure what

will be the retirement benefit which

will be due to him. Will court give

such an order attatching the

retirment benefits.

Re: Attatching retirement benefits

No court can legally grant an order of attachment of retiral benefits like gratuity, P.F. in any suit. Those are exempt under Sec.60(1)(g) of the Code of Civil Procedure from attachment. Pl. refer to the recent judgment of Madras High court in the case of "K.Murugesan Vs.E.Ulaganathan reported in 2009(2)Curent Tamil Nadu Cases,(CTC) page 725 ( C.R.P.(PD) No.159/2009 dated 1/4/2009. If you are unable to get the above book, try the Madras High court website and access judgments of Mr.Justice S.Palanivelu, in case it is webcast there.

Re: Attatching retirement benefits

No you can file recovery suit only. Retiral benifits should have already been delivered and court cannot attach his pension.
