Analysis and Conclusion:Order 41 Rule 5 CPC provides a framework where appellate courts can stay proceedings, but such stay is not automatic and must be explicitly granted, often with conditions. The executing court’s authority under Order 21 Rule 26 CPC allows it to stay execution even if the appellate court refuses stay, especially to prevent substantial loss.

Judicial precedents emphasize the importance of balancing the rights of decree holders and appellants, with courts exercising discretion based on the circumstances, including the nature of the decree, the potential for substantial loss, and procedural requirements.
