As per case facts, the appellant mortgaged his property, which was later auctioned off after a foreclosure suit and decrees. The appellant challenged the auction-sale, but it was confirmed. Subsequently, ... during the pendency of appeals in the High Court, the appellant made certain deposits. The Single Judge allowed the appeals and set aside the auction-sale, but the Division Bench reversed this decision. The question arose whether a mortgaged property sale is confirmed if an appeal against the confirmation is pending, and if deposits under Order 34 Rule 5 C.P.C. can be made during such appeal. Finally, the Supreme Court ruled that if an appeal challenging the refusal to set aside a sale is ongoing, the confirmation of sale is not absolute. Consequently, the judgment-debtor can make deposits under Order 34 Rule 5 C.P.C. to protect their property. The Court therefore set aside the Division Bench's judgment and restored the Single Judge's decision.
