Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of a sale certificate issued in execution proceedings under Order 21 of the CPC, specifically examining the implications of Sections 47 and 151 of the CPC. The Court held that the sale certificate does not pass title to the property not included in the auction, emphasizing that the auction purchaser cannot claim possession of properties not explicitly mentioned in the sale documents. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision that the sale certificate only pertains to the property described therein.
