Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a revision petition under Section 115 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, concerning the admissibility of additional evidence in a suit for specific performance of an agreement to sell. The Court held that the High Court's decision to allow the application under Order XLI, Rule 27 CPC was justified, as it aimed to ensure a fair trial by permitting forensic examination of the original agreement. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order allowing additional evidence to be presented.
