In the cases of execution of a decree for recovery of money, the Court may direct the judgment debtor (Defendant)r, at the initial stage itself, to file the affidavit of assets as on the date of the institution of the suit as well as of the current date i.e. date of swearing the affidavit in Form 16A, Appendix E under Order XXI Rule 41(2) of the Code of Civil Procedure along with a statement of all his/her bank accounts for the last three years within 30 days of the receipt of the notice and to remain present for being orally examined under Order XXI Rule 41(1) of the Code of Civil Procedure.

A.Dear Client,
If the female defendant in a legal case has no property, obtaining a decree or judgment against her may pose challenges in terms of execution and realization of the awarded amount. The court's ability to enforce the decree largely depends on the defendant's assets and financial situation. In situations where the defendant lacks tangible assets, the execution of the decree might be hindered.
It is advisable to consult with a legal professional to explore alternative methods of enforcing the decree. This could include periodic income attachment if the defendant has a source of income, seeking information about her financial assets, or exploring other avenues to secure the awarded amount. Additionally, legal advice can guide you on whether pursuing the case further is a practical and viable option, considering the financial circumstances of the defendant.
Thankyou
