In calculating the period of limitation, which is 3 years the date of execution of the promissory note has to be excluded in view of Section 12. So, the suit should have been filed on 12/04/2003. But, since there was general holidays from 12/04/2003 to 15/04/2003 the suit filed on 16/04/2003 is not barred by Limitation.

In such cases, the Court may on the payment of the Court fees prescribed for such suit or appeal, treat the suit or appeal as having the same force and effect as if the Court fees had been paid in the first instance.
