Answer-Under Section 19(5B), if a defendant admits the full or part of the debt, the Tribunal orders paymen...

Section 195B provides that where a defendant makes an admission of the full or part of the debt due, the Tribunal shall order payment of the admitted amount within thirty days from the date of such order. If the defendant fails to pay within 30 days, the Tribunal may issue a certificate of recovery to the extent of the admitted amount even while the contested portion continues to be litigated. This provision enables partial recovery without awaiting final adjudication of the entire disputed amount, improving cash flow for banks. The certificate is issued under the Presiding Officers signature to the Recovery Officer for execution.
