A court ruling emphasizes the importance of banks maintaining and returning original property documents after a loan is fully repaid. Compensation has been ordered for a firm that had its title deeds misplaced. The firm, which is based in the same city as the court, had deposited the documents with a bank branch decades ago to secure credit facilities.

The loan was cleared, but the documents were not returned. A daily compensation amount has been specified, effective from a certain date in 2023. Further details about the case and the court's decision are available.

The ruling was made by a division bench of judges, and it applies to a specific bank and firm involved in the case.
