JUDGMENT Guha, J. - This is an appeal under the Letters Patent, directed against the decision of our learned brother Mr. Justice Jack, dated the 25th February, 1936, affirming the decrees passed by the lower Courts in a suit for recovery of arrears of rent with interest on the basis of a Patni patta. The question for consideration before the lower Courts and before our learned brother Mr. Justice Jack in second appeal, related only to the question as to whether the Plaintiff, in the suit in which this appeal arises, was entitled to interest on the Patni rent at the rate stipulated in the kabuliyat, that is, at the rate of 6 1/4 Per cent, per month or 75 per cent, per annum. The question resolved itself into this whether the landlord of a Patni could realise more than 12 1/4 per cent, as interest on arrears of rent, regard being had to the provisions contained in sec. 67 of the Bengal Tenancy Act. It appears to us that the decision on the question raised in this appeal is concluded by authority, so far as this Court is concerned, of the decision in the case of Monoranjan Rai v. Munshi Selamuddin Ahmed Chandhuri (3) in which it was held, on consideration of the material provisions contained in the Patni Regulation (Regulation VIII of 1890), that in view of secs. 2 and 3 of the Patni Regulation and sec. 195 (e) of the Bengal Tenancy Act, the matter of payment of interest on the arrears of Patni rent is to be regulated by the terms of the engagement between the parties, and not by sec. 178 or the proviso to sec. 179 of the Bengal Tenancy Act. Our learned brother Mr. Justice Jack in his judgment, against which this appeal is directed, relied upon the decision of this Court to which reference has just been made, and has given his own reason for coming to the conclusion, which is entirely in consonance with the decision in Monoranjan's case 39 C. W. N. 1003 (1935). referred to above. It may be mentioned that on consideration of the arguments advanced before us by Dr. Sen Gupta appearing for the Appellant, we find no reason to come to any decision different from those arrived at by this Court in Monoranjan's case (3) and the decision arrived at by our learned brother Mr. referred to above. It may be mentioned that on consideration of the arguments advanced before us by Dr. Sen Gupta appearing for the Appellant, we find no reason to come to any decision different from those arrived at by this Court in Monoranjan's case (3) and the decision arrived at by our learned brother Mr. Justice Jack in the case in which this appeal has arisen. The appeal fails, and it is dismissed with costs.
