Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the Trial Court's decree directing defendants to execute a sale deed in favor of the plaintiff under the agreement to sell dated 24.4.1982, emphasizing that the defendants' claims of adverse possession and denial of the agreement were insufficient to negate the enforceability of the contract. The Court noted that the defendants had failed to execute the sale deed within the stipulated time and that the plaintiff had fulfilled his obligations by paying the advance. The Court affirmed the lower court's ruling, thereby reinforcing the principles of contract enforcement and the rights of parties under an agreement to sell.
