FEDERATION OF PAKISTAN

Section: 15

(a) Financial Institutions (Recovery of Finances) Ordinance (XLVI of 2001)---S.15---Sale of mortgaged property--Analysis of S.15 of the Financial Institutions (Recovery of Finances) Ordinance, 2001. An analysis of S.15, Financial Institutions (Recovery of Finances) Ordinance, 2001 gives a clear inference that:-- (i) The provision is invoked against the mortgagor for recovery of mortgage money, which includes finance, penalties, damages, charges or pecuniary liabilities.
