Description
It gives me immense pleasure in presenting the 22st Edition of the "Transfer of Property Act, 1882" to our esteemed readers. The relevant material available upto August 2022 has been incorporated to keep the book up-to- date and at the same time strenuous efforts have been made to keep the book student-friendly. Judgements delivered by the Supreme Court of India as well as by various High Courts of the country were examined and relevant cases are incorporated at appropriate places. In some of the cases, Courts have tried to clarify the doubtful issues. In the case of Sridhar and another v. N. Revenna and others, AIR 2022 SC 928, the Supreme Court clarified that where property is transferred in favour of a minor and the minor is deprived of the right to transfer the property, such a deprivation would be void and the minor would be entitled to transfer the property as if no restriction exists. In the case of Dr. S. Kumar and others v. S. Ramlingam, AIR 2022 SC 564, the question of easementary right of a purchaser was considered and it was held that a purchaser occupying the back portion of a property is entitled to use the property infront of it as easementary right i.e. the right of passage. In another case, the Karta of the family sold his coparcenary property knowing that his son has become a member of the coparcenary. The son challenged the transfer on the ground that it was not for any legal necessity. The father failed to produce any evidence regarding legal necessity. The transaction was held void and the transferee was held to be affected by the principle of
lis pendens.
