Tundal (Dead) By L.Rs. & Ors vs Munshi & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the application of Section 4 of the Punjab Redemption of Mortgages Act, 1913, affirming that the right of redemption is not extinguished merely due to the dismissal of a prior suit. The Court clarified that the heirs of the mortgagor can seek redemption despite previous dismissals, provided they establish their legal standing. The appeals against the High Court's dismissal were dismissed, reinforcing the principle that the right to redeem a mortgage persists unless explicitly extinguished by law.
