Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of an Agreement to Sell under the Transfer of Property Act, emphasizing that a seller must fulfill conditions precedent, such as delivering possession, before executing a sale deed. The Court held that the Appellant's inability to deliver possession due to a pending suit did not constitute a breach of the agreement. Consequently, the dismissal of the Second Appeal was upheld, affirming the necessity of adhering to contractual obligations as stipulated in the agreement.
