Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of an agreement dated 2.11.1983 for the sale of flats, determining that the agreement was binding on the parties despite the defendants' claims of it being provisional. The Court held that the subsequent conveyance of the property to a third party was fraudulent and not binding on the plaintiffs, thereby affirming the need for specific performance of the contract. The judgment emphasized the principles of contract law regarding the enforceability of agreements and the implications of fraudulent transactions.
