Reliance in this regard is placed on the decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi in JK Laksmi Cement vs. Master Avishkar Prakash 2024:DHC:9239. Therefore, even though the plaintiff has not specifically claimed any interest on the occupation charges/mesne profits, this court is empowered to award interest thereon as the same is inherent in the very concept of mesne profits under Section 2(12) of the Code of Civil Procedure. This court is of the considered view that grant of simple interest @ 9% per annum on the amount of occupation charges/mesne profits is reasonable, just and equitable in the facts and circumstances of the present case.

Kashmiri Gate Charitable Trust (Regd.) vs Jasmeet Singh on 15 January, 2026

58.As regards interest payable on mesne profits, it is a settled law that interest forms an integral part of the mesne profits and therefore once the court awards mesne profits, the interest accruing thereon has to be allowed as a necessary corollary in the computation of the mesne profits. Reliance in this regard is placed on the decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi in JK Laksmi Cement vs. Master Avishkar Prakash 2024: DHC: 9239. In the present case, the plaintiffs have prayed for interest @ 12% per annum on the amount of damages/mesne profits and also on the future mesne profits. In the considered opinion of this court, the same appears to be exorbitant and without any basis. Considering the prevailing market conditions, this court does not deem it equitable to grant such high rate of interest. This court is of the considered view that grant of simple interest @ 9% per annum on the amount of damages/mesne profits and also on the future mesne profits is reasonable, just and equitable in the facts and circumstances of the present case. Accordingly, the defendants are held jointly and severally liable to pay damages/mesne profits @ Rs. 4000/- per month from 01.05.2014 till the date of handing over the vacant and peaceful possession of the tenanted premises to the plaintiffs along with simple interest @ 9% per annum for the said period.
