6. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the record made available before me.
7. The respondents have obtained the loan vide Agreement dated 20.6.1981. According to this agreement, the security for payment was mortgaged of property No. 27/3, RCD Highway, Hub Chowki and on the same date an agreement to create mortgage on future assets was signed by the. Managing Director of the respondent No. 1 and not by respondent No. 3. The petitioner has not produced any documents to show that at any point of time this property was mortgaged with them or that they have created any charge upon the property. The loan was obtained by the respondent No. 1 in view of the Agreement dated 26.6.1981 whereas the property was sold to the objector by the respondent No. 3 vide Sale agreement dated 5.3.1980 and the mutation was effected in the names of the purchaser on 16.2 1981. The agreement to create mortgage on future assets was executed on 20.6.1981 and has no effect on the transfer which was completed before that date. On 20.6.1981 the day when the Credit Agreement between the petitioner and the respondent No. 1 was executed the respondent No. 3 was no more the owner of the property and the same cannot be subject-matter of any credit agreement. The property in question was never offered as security in terms of Section 100 of the Transfer of Property Act. The petitioner has also not produced any document to show that at any point of time the charge was created against the said property or the same was simply mortgaged with them. Even no document has been filed to show that while obtaining loan the respondent No. 3 claimed this property and on that basis the loan was' granted to the respondent No. 1.
