CORAM:
HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE VIBHU BAKHRU
13. The contention that the amount received by the respondent from
MSRDC is in the nature of a trust for and on behalf of the petitioner, is
unpersuasive. It is clear that the Agreement is a commercial agreement
between the petitioner and the respondent. Indisputably, in terms of the
Agreement, the respondent was obliged to deposit the amounts received
from MSRDC in respect of the works executed by the petitioner in the
specified account and make over 99% of the said amount to the
petitioner. The petitioner, essentially, claims that the respondent has
failed and neglected to perform its contractual obligations. However,
according to the respondent, the petitioner has failed to satisfactorily
execute the works sub-contracted to it.

17. However, it is seen that the present petition does not contain any
averments to the effect that the respondent is acting in the manner so as
to frustrate an award that may be made by made in favour of the
petitioner. There are neither any averments to the said effect nor any
material placed on record that would, prima facie, satisfy the Court in
this regard.
