Dear sir,
The suit dismissed under order 17 rule 3 can be said to have been decided finally and yes based on the order passed as per the above, a decree would be drawn.
However, a suit dismissed under the aforesaid provision can also be restored upon appeal, if appropriate reasoning is given. Also the courts tend to restore suits which are dismissed for non prosecution and not heard on merits, provided a valid and cogent reasons are given.
