Svapn Constructions vs Idpl Employees Cooperative Group ... on 20 December, 2005

17. It is urged by the appellant/plaintiff that in so far as defendant No.1 is concerned, the plaintiff's case has to be accepted because the proceeding against defendant No.1 was ex- parte as he did not join the proceedings of the case despite being served with the summons. A bare perusal of the plaint shows that the plaintiff has instituted the suit against proprietorship firm without impleading its proprietor. The fact that defendant No.1 is a proprietorship firm is clear from the documents Ex. PW1/2 and Ex. D2W1/P1 (colly). A proprietorship firm has no legal entity which can sue or be sued in its own name. Reliance in this regard can be placed on Miraj Marketing Corporation Vs. Vishaka Engineering & Anr., 115(2004)DLT471, and Svapn Constructions Vs. IDPL Employees Co-operative Group Housing Society Ltd. & Ors., 127(2006)DLT80. Therefore, the suit of the plaintiff was defective against defendant No.1 since it was instituted against a proprietorship firm without impleading its proprietor.
