Description
Transfer of property inter-vivos has assumed significance and it covers majority of transactions as compared to intestate succession and testamentary disposition. The term property under the Act has been used both in subjective and objective senses, which provide more scope for individual freedom in dealing with property. Therefore, the concepts have varied from time to time and place to place. The development of commercial activities on land and in relation to land has also necessitated some kind of protective legislation in areas of property. This development can be visualised through special legislations in different areas, however, Transfer of Property Act remains the general law to guide such activities. The classic treatise on Transfer of Property Act by Darashaw J Vakil has seen many changes in law and nature of activities since its first publication in 1938, however the main feature as put forth by the original author remains the same, but have been further expanded and developed on the basis of judicial pronouncements and legislative changes.
