Property sale revived after 9-year payment delay: Telangana HC lets buyer keep property deal alive with 12% interest penalty

A Telangana High Court ruling has revived a property deal after a buyer's nine-year delay in paying the Rs 8 lakh balance. Despite the seller's initial opposition, the court condoned the extensive delay, allowing the buyer to complete the sale by depositing the outstanding amount with 12% annual interest. The court emphasized that the seller's failure to appeal the original decree prevented him from opposing the sale now.
