Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Order XII, Rule 4 of the Code of Civil Procedure deals with the procedure for admitting facts during a civil suit to streamline the trial.When a party serves a "notice to admit facts" to the opposite party, it is essentially requesting them to confirm certain facts to avoid unnecessary litigation over those matters.
As per Order XII, Rule 4, the party on whom the notice is served is required to respond within 15 days from the date of service of the notice.
This time frame allows the party enough opportunity to either admit or deny the facts formally in writing.
Hence, the correct time limit prescribed under the CPC is 15 days, and the other options (9, 7, and 6 days) are incorrect.
