The O.P. started harassing the petitioner and lastly denied the delivery of said machine stating his deposit of Rs. 1,25,000/- be forfeited as he could not pay Rs. 4,05,000/- and having no other alternative the petitioner filed this case.
4. The o.ps. did not appear and thus the case is heard ex parte against them.

The above oral and documentary evidenceswent unchallenged and there is nothing to disbelieve the case of the petitioner who is entitled to the reliefs as prayed for and thus the petitioner has succeeded in proving the case ex parte.
