would be ready for use from January 1, 2011. The terms of payments were agreed as under:
(i) 10% advance payment would be made on signing of the agreement. The advance paid
would be adjusted at 10% of the quarterly progress bills.
(ii) 5% retention money would also be deducted from the progress bills. Retention money will
be refunded one year after completion of the factory building.

On April 30, 2010 an invoice of Rs. 1.5 million was raised by the contractor for damages sustained
