U.P. Co-Operative Federation Ltd vs Singh Consultants & Engineers (P) Ltd on 19 November, 1987
23. The learned Advocate General relied upon an unreported decision in A.A.O.No. 1450 of 1990 dated November 15, 1991. The appellant in C.M.A.Nos. 247 and 248 of 1992 is the appellant therein. He filed a suit O.S.No. 782 of 1990 for a permanent injunction restraining the defendants from encashing the bank guarantee. As the application for interim injunction was dismissed, the matter was carried in appeal before the High Court. A Division Bench of this Court found that the appellant had stopped the work on January 4,1990 and shifted the machinery on January 19, 1990. Therefore, the Bench came to the conclusion that the appellant has diverted the advance mobilisation loan for some other purpose and accordingly, dismissed the appeal, holding that the appellant has neither prima facie case nor balance of convenience in his favour. The decision reported in U.P.C.F. Ltd v. Singh Consultants and Engineers (P) Ltd. (3 supra) and G.E.T. Services Company Inc. v. Punj Sons (P) Ltd. (4 supra), are also relied on in this case. In similar circumstances another Division Bench of this Court in A.A.O.No. 526 of 1992 dated 13-11-1992 considered the maintainability of the suit. For the purpose of bringing the suit within the jurisdiction of Subordinate Judge's Court, the suit value is shown as exceeding Rs. 50,000/- as in these cases. The Bench observed that "it is not comprehensible how the claims are not capable of definite valuation; it is a matter of common knowledge that before an arbitrator also, the claimant has to file a claim statement giving particulars of claims and the amount claimed under each claim", and finally held that the suit is not maintainable. We respectfully agree. Therefore, we have no hesitation in holding that the suits are not maintainable and that applications for injunction restraining the defendants from invoking the bank guarantees are also not maintainable.

Union Of India vs Raman Iron Foundry on 12 March, 1974
24. The learned Counsel for the appellant placing reliance on another decision reported in Union of India v. Raman Iron Foundry, , submits that under Clause-41(b) of the Arbitration Act, the Court can grant interim injunction, pending the suit, when read with Rule-4 Schedule II. It is true in the said case, the Supreme Court has found that the Court has got power under Section 41(b) of the Act, to grant interim orders when the claim is pending adjudication, and accordingly, the appellant could be restrained from recovering monies by appropriating other amounts due to the respondent. But, in this case, we have already held that the suit itself is not maintainable, and the petition for injunction in such a suit, cannot be ordered.
