was always ready and willing to perform its part of the orders.

going slow. My client says that there is no delay and latches
on the part of my client in completing the obligations as per

my client has not claimed escalation due to increase in
material cost. My client says that even after extension period
of 6 months, the site was not made available by you and
therefore the remaining work could not be carried out by
client. Thereafter again prices were increased. My client says
that the prices of the material were increased and therefore
my client requested you to increase the price after expiry of
extended period 6 months. However till date you have not
considered the increased price of material. Moreover you
have also not extended the period of work order and
purchase order, after the expiry of extended 6 months and
