Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning specific performance of a sale agreement under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1973. The Court held that the plaintiff, having paid substantial amounts towards the sale consideration and having been in possession of the property, was entitled to specific performance despite the defendant's failure to vacate the premises. The judgment of the High Court allowing the second appeal was upheld, affirming the plaintiff's rights under the agreements of sale dated 8.2.1976 and 16.7.1976.
