Can the right to mesne profits be attached in execution of a decree?

 A crucial question arises: Can the right to mesne profits be attached in execution of a decree?

  • Yes, the right to mesne profits can be attached and executed under Order 21, Rule 42 of CPC.

  • If a decree is passed for possession along with mesne profits, the decree-holder can apply for execution to recover the mesne profits.

  • However, if mesne profits are unascertained, a separate inquiry under Order 20, Rule 12 of CPC is required to determine the exact amount before execution.
